Plants van OCI draaien op dit moment nog op maximale productiecapaciteit, het is echter de vraag hoe lang nog i.v.m. beperkte afzet mogelijkheden.
Dit is wat N.Sawiris zelf zegt over de COVID-19 Outbreak:
''Finally, we are closely monitoring the recent outbreak of the
novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which continues to impact the
global economy and markets. At this time, the impact on our
operations, supply chain and end market demand has been
limited, production at our plants has not been disrupted by the
events, and our liquidity position remains healthy. While it is
difficult to predict the ultimate effect of these developments on
our business, we remain well positioned to weather this period
of uncertainty and and we have set up a COVID-19 taskforce to
develop and implement contingency plans. We are pro-actively
taking all necessary actions to navigate our operations through
these difficult times, help to ensure uninterrupted global food
supply with our products and, most importantly, protect our
employees, suppliers, customers and all other stakeholders''
