Abu Dhabi has doubled the amount of basic food items available at municipality-run food distribution centres and cooperative societies across the country.

The increased quantity of food will be available to Emiratis throughout April and May as they prepare for the Holy Month of Ramadan.

Citizens can order from participating outlets via the Abu Dhabi Municipality’s smart hub as the public is urged to stay home to contain the coronavirus outbreak.

The digital platform was founded by the municipality in 2018 to provide all municipal services online.

“[Now it ] enables UAE nationals to place delivery orders for all basic food items across distribution centers across participating cooperative societies,” said the Department of Municipalities and Transport on Twitter.

“We are ready to receive your orders,” they said on Twitter.
