CHINA – Unpredictability about the spread of the coronavirus outbreak in China, coupled with government-mandated production delays in select provinces and cities, has led to uncertainty about how this will impact the global supply chain and manufacturing across a number of textile sectors ranging from chemicals and technology through to exhibitions and trade shows.

As previously reported by Ecotextile News, three Shanghai textile fairs which were due to take place in March have been postponed until later in the year because of the coronavirus outbreak and, according to a special report on the Wuhan coronavirus, this could have extended implications for the industry as outbound shipments could face reduced capacity over the coming months.
