Store hours will change effective April 19 for all DeCicco & Sons supermarkets during pandemic.
The chain’s co-owner tells News 12 the stores will be closed this Sunday and next Sunday. All locations were also closed on Easter. 
“We are closing the next 2 Sundays to give our employees some extra time off to relax both physically and mentally,” says co-owner Chris DeCicco in a statement issued to News 12. “Everyone has been working around the clock in a very high-stress environment, so we felt it was the best for all of our employees to have this extra time off right now.”
