Quanta made a statement in April. To adhere to the Covid limits set by the regional government, the Shanghai site stopped operating. According to spokeswoman Carol Hsu, the business received permission to restart operations using a closed-loop system in the same month.

Due to delays in the logistics and a lack of workers, the restart was difficult. Only around the end of June did the Shanghai unit resume full production, he claimed. In a conference call with investors about its Shanghai operation, Hsu said that the significant rebound took longer than anticipated. He described the business’s performance as dismal.

Some Apple laptops are produced by Quanta in its Shanghai facility. despite protracted lockdowns that the government has imposed. According to sources, the location earlier this year saw violent conflicts and spreading diseases.
