It’s a bit of a confusion… And for the employees and managers of certain commercial areas, Friday was a long day. very long. If some of the shops were fixed early enough on their fate, following the announcements of Jean Castex Thursday evening, such as the Cora shopping center in Sarreguemines for example, others remain, for the time being, in expectation.

This is, for example, the case at Leroy Merlin in Forbach, where crisis meetings to prepare for a possible closure followed the measurements taken to recalculate the exact surface area of the store. An uncertainty, linked to the exact surfaces counted or to the nature of the businesses and to the previous ones, in particular those of spring 2020, when the DIY stores were finally authorized to open … Same situation, and therefore lack of certainty in the same brand in Metz and Hauconcourt. Obviously complex checkpoints since the Moselle prefecture did not finally release an official list on Friday at the end of the day. What is true is that in addition to Cora Sarreguemines, the two Castorama of Augny and Terville have confirmed that they are closing. In addition, the Marques Avenue outlet in Talange and the Saint-Jacques center in Metz should also be closed this Saturday.
For the Leclerc centers in Maizières, Thionville or Fameck for example, the situation is also unclear and will be clarified by the prefectural authorities this Saturday, March 6. In Sarrebourg, on the other hand, the sign should close.
In Meurthe-et-Moselle the situation is clearer: the fate of the shopping arcade of the Leclerc hypermarket in Conflans-en-Jarnisy was decided by the end of the afternoon. It is also the only one to be closed in the department, the south of 54 being spared for the time being due to a much lower incidence rate of the virus.
