Covid-19 is putting a lot of pressure on production and processing units in Portugal

Due to Covid-19 measurements, production teams are under high pressure trying to meet the purchase requests. Whenever they spot a new case of Covid 19, the entire shift team has to be put in quarantine, thus demanding extra effort and overtime to other shift teams. Because of this there some orders are being delayed, and some others not being accepted. It is expected that with the confinement measures in place, the production output pace should be normalized in 3 to 4 weeks time.
