Background: The pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged and affected most of the world in early 2020. Various restrictions and lockdowns were placed to prevent the transmission of the virus. Consumer buying practices have changed and also in Small Scale Retailers have adopted ways to prevent the transmission of the virus. Various guidelines have been issued by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) to limit the transmission speed of the virus especially pertaining to retailers in the geographical region of mostly rural areas. The present study will help us to determine the knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) of Small Scale Retailers regarding covid appropriate practices in the workplace. Objective: To study and evaluate the Knowledge, Attitude and Practice of Covid Appropriate Behavior in Small Scale Retailers in Rural Central India. Methodology: An anonymous, self-administered, web-based, survey via Google forms containing demographic details like age, gender, education, socio-economic status etc would be conducted after an explanation about the project, and informed consent (on Google forms) is acquired from the Small Scale Retailers in Wardha district. The adapted version of the questionnaire will be given in Hindi and Marathi, so as to make it convenient for the participants. The results will be then analysed statistically and the answers will be recorded, tabulated and would be graphically represented. Results: The study plays a vital role in assessing the behaviour of the Small Scale Retailers and the practices followed by them to avert the transmission of the covid-19 virus and provide insights for further recommendations
