Teams of the police, fire service, health authorities, the Commission for Consumer Protection and the Food Safety Agency will monitor compliance with anti-epidemic measures and help reduce the concentration of people, Kunchev added. The Minister of Economy pointed out that retail chains were willing to comply with the measures and many of them have already reorganized their work.
