McDonald's, KFC, Subway, Burger King, when your favourite fast food stores will open

Brian from New Lynn

New Zealand's fast-food chains are getting ready to start serving the nation again following a temporary hiatus during the coronavirus lockdown. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern yesterday announced alert level 3 would start from Tuesday next week, which was welcome news for thousands of people. Uber Eats would be operational in time for the lunch period next Tuesday, delivering meals to customers' doors without contact. But when exactly can you get your fast-food fill?
McDonald's
==========
McDonald's was confident the majority of its restaurants with drive-thrus would open across the country when lockdown lifts. About 130 of its 170 restaurants offered drive-thru and the company was working on providing contactless training to its 10,000 staff and ensuring further hygiene, sanitation and food-safety procedures. It was also in the process of working with its suppliers to confirm whether it could access stock and help franchisees ensure they could openly safely.
Subway
=======
All 250 Subway restaurants across New Zealand would open from Tuesday through delivery or contactless pick-up. Customers could have their meals delivered by Uber Eats and could order them off the Subway app or online.
Domino's
========
Domino's expects to open most stores for contactless delivery from Tuesday, with remaining stores opening the next day.
KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, and Carl's Jr
================================
Restaurant Brands, which operates KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and Carl's Jr, were not able to report when the restaurants would open to the public. However, a spokesperson told further information would be made available in the coming days.
Burger King
==========
Burger King was hoping to open its 83 outlets on Tuesday, it told publication Stuff. Once open, Burger King would offer drive-thru and delivery through Uber Eats.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
