Amid the coronavirus pandemic and trade tensions with China, many Australian consumers are opting for Australian made products. PMLive in partnership with HarveyNormanAU

Amid the coronavirus pandemic and trade tensions with China, many Australian consumers are opting for Australian made products. Rositano Kitchens in Penrith is a locally owned and operated business which had to adapt to the changing circumstances brought about by the coronavirus.

Like Rositano Kitchens, much of Penrith is driven by the construction industry which too has suffered from the pandemic. Harvey Norman in Penrith partners with many small businesses like Rositano Kitchens, while store operators have recently noticed an upsurge in customers specifically requesting Australian manufactured products. “It was an experience that really made us understand at the local level the community does back us,” Penrith Harvey Norman’s Bob Negroh told Sky News.

Travellers from COVID-19 hotspots should be banned from NSW businesses | Sky News AustraliaVictorians from coronavirus hotspots should be banned from entering “every business” in New South Wales, according to the state’s leader.\n\nNSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian today blasted visitors from Victoria saying there were “disregarding” official health advice by crossing the borders.\n\nShe also called on business owners across the state to refuse these travellers entry and service.\n'They should not be travelling anywhere, let alone interstate,' Ms Berejiklian said. \n\n “I think it is the prerogative of every business, every organisation not to accept anyone from those hotspots at this time.\n\n“That is basic pandemic management.”\n The last person leaving Victoria, please turn out the lights. Seriously wtf is going on? We have just over 100 active cases out of a population of 6.4 million!!! So now if your municipality has 6 or so active cases it’s considered a hot spot ... these are crazier times than a couple of months ago!!!! Makes no sense ...... So if you're in NSW and see a constant stream of cars going by and not stopping...... just smile and wave, they probably holidaying Victorians. Taking in the sights from the inside of their car.
