Isuzu to suspend vehicle production in Thailand
Isuzu Motors (Thailand) Co Ltd is suspending manufacturing operations at its plant in Thailand as the current Covid-19 situation had affected the component supply chain across the globe and shrunk domestic and the export markets.
Tri Petch Isuzu Sales Co Ltd, official distributor of Isuzu vehicles in Thailand, said that it had been informed by Isuzu about suspension of production at its two plants -- in Amphur Prapradaeng, Samut Prakan province, and in Gateway Industrial Estate in Chachoengsao province -- from April 13-30.
The statement by Tri Petch Sales on Wednesday hinted at the production suspension impacting deliveries to customers who had booked vehicles. Tri Petch Isuzu Sales, the sole distributor of Isuzu vehicles, assured customers it would do its best to handle the matter.
