Note's Plant in China to Reopen
TANGXIA, CHINA -- Note's EMS plant opened today at reduced capacity following the extended New Year's holiday caused by the coronavirus.
During the first week, the plant will have about 50% capacity and the plan is that the production will be in full swing by the end of February.
Note said it has taken the necessary steps to prepare the plant for startup and to prevent the spread of the virus. The electronics manufacturer is working in consultation with local authorities, who have given their approval for the startup. To catch up with the backlog that has arisen due to the extended holiday, staff will work overtime. A close dialogue is held with key suppliers to avoid interruptions in deliveries as much as possible.
Note said efforts to increase inventories for critical components prior to the Chinese New Year prepared it for the virus disruptions.
