ICAPE Utilizes Worldwide Partner Network to Reduce Supply Chain Disruption
March 15, 2022 | ICAPE GroupEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The Covid-19 situation is getting better all around the world, but the city of Shenzhen in the south of China has been placed under new restrictions because of a jump of new cases for at least one week. As some of ICAPE’s partner factories are located in Shenzhen, the PCB and technical parts production could be delayed for one week or more, depending on the evolution of the situation.
China has placed 17.5 million residents of the city of Shenzhen into lockdown, for at least one week, to prevent the growth of positive cases of Covid-19 over the last few weeks. All public transportation and businesses have been closed, including our production plants, located in the city.
Due to this lockdown, some customers’ supply chain will be affected. ICAPE Group is coordinating with their strategic network of partner factories, in Asia, in the Americas, and in South Africa to help prevent additional disruption.
Of the 80 factories in the company’s network, 11 factories are impacted. Their sourcing, purchasing and logistics departments are constantly monitoring the situation from their headquarters in China, to anticipate and offer the best solutions for customers.
ICAPE teams remain available at any time to inform customers and provide them with strategic solutions, according to the situation.
