Turkey’s automotive producer Tofas has announced that it will halt production operations at its Bursa facility for two weeks from April 3 to April 20 due to disruptions in receiving supplies from abroad and making deliveries overseas resulting from measures taken to reduce the impact of the coronavirus outbreak.

Tofas said it will conduct regular maintenance works during the downtime. It will continue to produce medical equipment and, except for production, maintain its operations within the scope of its business continuity plan and the precautions have been taken to protect its employees’ health. There will be no layoffs during this period. The company will resume its operations depending on the recovery of supplies, deliveries and sales.
