Munich (dpa / lby) - The start of the FFP2 mask requirement on Monday caused little trouble in the Bavarian retail sector.
Occasionally there were heated discussions, said the managing director of the Bavarian Trade Association, Bernd Ohlmann.
But he is not aware of any major problems.
Most of the customers have already come with an FFP2 mask.
Currently there is still a grace week for the mask requirement.
When dealers deal with the mask requirement, there is a mixed picture, said Ohlmann.
Some made this clear to customers.
In addition, many also sold the masks directly.
However, some also emphasized that monitoring the mask requirement is a state responsibility.
Mask refusers would also have to pay a possible fine.
Retail employees are exempt from the FFP2 mask requirement.
The trade association stands behind the mask requirement.
He sees them as a door opener for a possible opening of further shops.
