Non-essential retailers in England and Northern Ireland are now allowed to reopen as long as they adhere to Covid-19 safety measures, but food producers have been hard at it all the way through the crisis.

Finnebrogue in Northern Ireland supplies sausages to most major supermarkets in the UK.

While the thought of the virus has kept its technical director "up at night", Declan Ferguson says the company has managed to safely keep their absence rate at less than 2%.

But how exactly do you do that in the midst of a pandemic?

In the midst of the coronavirus crisis, the supermarkets have become like the UK’s fourth emergency service. While most people have been staying safe in their homes, an army of workers across the country have been putting themselves at risk and working round the clock to keep us all fed. Sara Cox and Ade Adepitan have access to some of Britain’s biggest supermarkets and their suppliers to see how their systems have stood up to the most testing time in their history.
