Woolworths says its supermarkets have “significantly improved” their supply of rapid antigen tests, with customer demand expected to increase this month.
Hundreds of thousands of new kits are now available in stores across the country and further stock is expected to arrive within weeks.
“Our team has been working hard to improve stock levels of rapid antigen txjmtzywests in response to high community demand for them,” Woolworths commercial director for everyday needs James Hepworth said in a statement on Thursday.
“With larger orders coming into our distribution centres, we’re now able to send daily shipments to our stores.
“We currently have three times as much stock as during the recent peak in demand and will double that volume again by next week.”
RATs are available at the service desk and can also be ordered for pick-up or home delivery online.
The purchase limit has increased to two packs per customer and there is a regular review process.
At Woolworths, one and two unit packs cost $15 per test, while packs with more than two tests cost $10 per test.
