Ashern Auction Mart

 

Covid – 19 response

 

The Ashern Auction Mart will continue to operate because they are an extremely important link in the food chain.  Many cattle producers rely solely on the auction market for their source of income from cattle sales, and the auctions give the producers a method of true price discovery. 

The majority of the order-buying firms are continuing to support the weekly auctions.  The livestock trucking industry is doing a great job of moving cattle and keeping the supply chain moving.

By incorporating these new restrictions into their daily business practices, the auction markets are working to ensure that the safety of their employees, customers, service providers and families is a priority.

The restaurant will be closed Tuesdays but will provide a takeout service to staff and order buyers on Wednesday

Social distancing between staff and between buyers will be enforced.

Buyers will go for their invoices and recaps, one at time and will demonstrate social distancing from the office staff
