Mr. Strickland expressed his satisfaction with staff performance in such a strenuous time.
He said “I am so proud of all 440 employees of RTW who have stepped up during these unprecedented times. We hope this token of appreciation will show our employees how much their efforts are appreciated as they continue to step up and serve our community.”

Road Town Wholesale is currently seeing a surge in panic-shopping as persons hurry to stock up on essentials. The company placed restrictions on certain items to curb the practice of overbuying that is leaving some shelves bare of essential products like hand sanitizer and toilet paper.
