De Chinese overheid eist dat fabrieken in Guangdong later gaan opstarten dan gepland was na de viering van het Chinees Nieuwjaar. Dit doen zij om het bij elkaar komen van mensen te beperken en daarmee de verdere verspreiding van het Corona virus te voorkomen.
Naast deze vertraagde opstart is onze ervaring dat de levertijden na het Chinees nieuwjaar flink kunnen oplopen. Dit zal mogelijk merkbaar zijn in levertijden van componenten. Chinese bedrijven communiceren vaak laat over tegenvallers of problemen.
Wij ontvingen deze brief van de Chinese overheid:
