Share: ANAHEIM,Calif., Dec. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- No one will be sitting on Santa's lap this Christmas. Traditional holiday get togethers are currently a thing of the past. The wrath of COVID-19 has forced retailers to rethink how to celebrate the season safely. Making the holiday season a little easier for communities, Northgate González Market is one retailer coming up with new, safe ways to give back. Every December for the last 25 years, thousands of families with little children would crowd in line outside of Northgate Market stores in hopes to meet Santa Claus and receive a new toy. This year the Latino-themed grocery chain worried given the surge in COVID cases whether they would be able to deliver toys again to boys and girls. But the company also saw the need for some holiday cheer was even greater this year for local families given so many traditional breadwinners were now unemployed.
