FYI USPCC temporarily stopping production

Unread post by grayout »

I received an email from USPCC :

"As of 8pm Thursday March 26, 2020, our facility will be closed as ordered until further notice to help stop the spread of the virus and flatten the curve. "

"What does this mean? Your project/order will be delayed. We are not certain how much this is going to delay your project/order, but we will keep you informed as best we can."

Honestly I'm surprised this didn't happen a week ago - sucks for creators (and people who want their cards!) but we've all got to suck it up for the time being

Is Cartamundi doing the same thing?

"Cartamundi facilities in Dallas, East Longmeadow, Ireland and India temporarily paused production.
These are exceptional times for all of us. Our thoughts are with all of you and your loved ones, and we hope that you stay safe and healthy.

The health and safety of our employees is our core priority. At the same time, we also work on the continuation of service to our customers. To safeguard the output of our factories across the globe, Cartamundi has implemented additional health and safety measures and guidelines – many of which are more stringent than governmental guidelines.

Despite these guidelines, we are currently unable to keep all of our factories operational. Several authorities impose severe restrictions. Currently, four Cartamundi factories have temporarily paused production.

We are planning for the Cartamundi factory in Waterford, Ireland, to resume operations on Monday, March 30, 2020.

The facility in Pardi, India, is closed until April 14, 2020.

In the US, our facility in Dallas, Texas, is scheduled to restart production for non-essential business on April 6, 2020, and the East Longmeadow, Massachusetts facility is planned to restart operations on April 8, 2020. The warehouse in East Longmeadow will remain operational.

All other Cartamundi facilities around the world are operational.

We will continue to evaluate the situation, and we will be working closely with you, our customers and partners, to identify your needs and priorities.

We will keep you updated on any significant changes, and as soon as the situation subsides, we will, of course, resume to normality.

Thank you for your continued support!"

Should I open another topic to post this?
