Brown Thomas and Arnotts have reopened their online stores. Both stores were shut down at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in Ireland, and then they stopped all online deliveries after the government announces even stricter measures to stop the spread of the virus. But now BTA has re-opened online, with a surge in sales already.

On another note, BTA will continue to pay their staff their full salary and benefits while their stores are closed during the Covid-19 outbreak. They will avail of the Government's wage subsidy scheme, but will also top up staff pay to 100% of their normal earnings.
