Halfords explained that it is not setting a “timetable or deadline” for reopening its remaining stores, adding that the pace will be dictated “entirely by the company's confidence that it can keep its colleagues and customers safe”. The stores set to reopen will allow a limited number of shoppers through their doors under a model Halfords bosses are calling “Retail Lite”. “We are also anticipating a similar level of demand for our motoring products and services in the coming days, as people begin to use vehicles again that in some cases will have been off the road for many weeks.” In addition to its retail stores, Halfords currently has 346 of its 373 garages and 77 vans operating under a contactless model.
