As China’s port structure is paralyzed due to the coronavirus outbreak, this is causing a shortage of cell phone parts imported by Brazil. As a result, according to a report published by the Agora Vale website, in Taubaté 200 LG Eletronics employees are going on collective holidays starting this Monday (03/02).
The measure had been anticipated by the company, which has no inventory of components from China to continue with production. Employees will be on leave for about 10 days. The Taubaté unit manufactures cell phones and monitors. In a note, the company informed that it is monitoring events in order to minimize the impacts caused to customers and partners.
