The sudden closure of the Coles Supermarket at Burdekin Plaza in Ayr over the weekend took many residents by surprise.
It is expected that the store will now be shut for two weeks while urgent roof repairs are made.
Todd Riches, Coles Regional Manager, said Coles paused trade over the weekend due to concerns about the stability of the roof tiles as a result of excess moisture and humidity from recent heavy rain.
“We want to thank the community for their continued understanding and patience while our store is temporarily closed. The health and safety of our team members and customers is our number one priority,” he said.
“We are working closely with our landlord, and have engaged a contractor to replace the tiles, which will be completed over the next two weeks.”
While the Ayr store is temporarily closed, residents will still be able to receive home delivery options from Townsville store.
All orders over $50 will receive free delivery and this service begins today, Thursday 22 February.
