Vodafone Idea Installs Protective Shields at Telecom Retail Outlets in Delhi NCR

Vodafone Idea today announced the installation of protective shields at the company’s retail outlets in Delhi NCR region. With the reopening of telecom retail outlets, Vodafone Idea customers will once again be able to access services across the counter. Ensuring safe distancing in the context of the current pandemic for its retail personnel and customers, Vodafone Idea has done another innovation by installing protective shields. Vodafone Idea recharge outlets and smartphone retailers in the capital city are now donning these safe shields made of hard MDF board and transparent PVC sheet. The shields prevent direct contact between the retail personnel and customers, even while facilitating customer service efficiently, and ensures complete social distancing within the store premises. Delhi is amongst the worst-hit cities when it comes to Coronavirus positive cases and it is a good move from Vodafone Idea.
