“The facility is currently operating at significantly reduced capacity,” Apple said in a statement. “Customers will experience longer wait times to receive their new products.”
Reuters reported in October that production of Apple’s iPhones could slump by as much as 30% at one of the world’s biggest factories next month due to tightening Covid curbs in China.
Its main Zhengzhou plant in central China, which employs about 200,000 people, has been rocked by discontent over stringent measures to curb the spread of Covid-19, with many workers fleeing the site. Guardian.com
