The impact of the Corona Virus (COVID-19) has created supply chain shifts globally. Our goal is to make sure that your business remains as unaffected as possible. Some factories have reopened. Yet almost half of all employees are unable to commute to work. Workers are being told to stay home as the number of confirmed cases continues to increase daily. Suppliers and vendors are taking precautions to keep employees safe. Only a few of the factories and traders have returned to work. The disruptions will carry on throughout March. Factories that are currently operating are not at 100% capacity.

Business Activities Have Been Restricted in Many Chinese Cities

“The new coronavirus outbreak in China has hit global supply chains hard with the impact starting to show as inventories run low amid prolonged citywide shutdowns and factory closures.”

– Huileng Tan, CNBC, February 20, 2020

The smartphone and mobile parts markets in the affected areas are expected to reopen on April 8, 2020. This date has already been pushed back so please consider this as a tentative date. We recommend that all our clients carry extra inventory as a preventative measure. This can help ensure that your business remains unaltered in case our supply chain is further disrupted.

“Depending on how quickly the virus continues to spread, analysts say the global tech supply chain could take a serious hit, leading to product delays and shortages.”

We are continuing to order mobile parts and accessories from our suppliers. Shipping, fulfillment, and receiving times might be affected. As the demand remains high we will keep our prices as competitive as possible.
