Retailers requiring customers to wear masks

Walmart

Here are a few of the large, high profile stores/big box retailers with mask policies for customers. In the USA, we do not have a national mask requirement yet, there are city and state requirements in only about 36 states as of 7/15/2020, many/most of the biggest retailers are requiring masks on customers.

The big news today, Walmart, the USA’s largest retailer, will require all customers to wear masks starting Monday (7/20/2020).

“Most major companies, from big-box retailers to pharmacy chains, require masks in places where state or local governments say they are mandatory. Some of those companies prohibit patrons from entering without a mask, while others request customers wear one but will still allow them in if they refuse.”
