MONTREAL—Many retail stores in Montreal area opened their doors on May 25 for the first time since March, with customers being asked to remain spaced apart and follow hygiene protocols.

Mask-wearing, Plexiglas barriers, frequent disinfecting and no-touch browsing were some of the measures put in place by retailers as Quebec eased restrictions imposed to contain the spread of COVID-19.
