Sales Of Refrigerated Sandwiches Fall By 30% In Mercadona

Spanish retailer Mercadona has seen a 30% decline in the sales of refrigerated sandwiches following the COVID-19 pandemic.

The retailer attributed this decline to change in consumer habits as Spain entered a national lockdown on 16 April to contain the spread of the virus.

Prior to the epidemic, these sandwiches were mainly consumed at work or other out-of-home locations like parks, the retailer added.
