Best buy store closings

LONG BEACH (CBSLA) — Two grocery stores in Long Beach will officially close Saturday in response to a controversial city law which requires companies to pay grocery workers an extra $4 per hour during the coronavirus pandemic.

(CBSLA) “I’m very sad about it,” Ricardo Galvan, a Downey resident, said. “I love coming here, especially after work. It was great coming here to get something to eat.
