THE OUTBREAK OF Covid-19 has seen many shops and restaurants shut their doors in recents weeks.

Cafes and restaurants have been particularly quick to pivot away from table service to takeaway. Some cafes – if they’re not staying open – have focused on the sale and delivery of coffee beans to customers, while many restaurants have also stepped up deliveries.
