Foxconn: Deliveries to factories have started again

Terry Gou, founder of Foxconn, Apple's top manufacturing partner, said Thursday that the resumption of production at its factories in China has "exceeded expectations" after a prolonged arrest due to the coronavirus outbreak that has disrupted chains of supply.

Foxconn, the world's largest manufacturer of contract electronics, has most of its production in China, where many of its suppliers are also located, and was hit hard as a result of virus-related restrictions that have damaged demand and They have turned manufacturers' supply chains globally upside down.

The Taiwan-based company, which assembles Apple iPhones, suffered its biggest monthly revenue drop in seven years in February, as the Coronavirus outbreak wreaked havoc on its business. Now things seem to be back to normal for the company and its employees, giving hope that the outbreak appears to have stabilized in that country.
