A story from my cousin in a country town four hours away by road: vandalism-related fire destroyed the only supermarket in the town two weeks before Christmas. Fifty locals became unemployed, including the son of a couple who run a plumbing warehouse business in the town.
They have voluntarily vacated their business premises & set up in a vacant building further out, leaving their previous locale available as a temporary supermarket. It's ideal for that purpose as it's 100 metres from the burnt-out store and has the required storage & car parking area.
The operators of the temporary supermarket have re-employed most of their previous employees & will be operating to keep them working & to keep the town supplied with groceries.
There's no space for the liquor store in the temporary premises but the shire-owned former public library building is being rented out to the supermarket operator as a replacement until the store is rebuilt.
Prior to that, a shopping bus to other towns within a 30 km radius was run twice-weekly.
Community spirit in action there. It's also a popular tourist destination so they'll benefit from the temporary store as well. Win-win.
