On 3rd February, investors asked online questions to the Xingfa Groupon the specific impact of the coronavirus epidemic on its production. The group’s board secretary explained that its main production units and subsidiaries have been running as normal, as raw materials used in its major production base in Hubei Province were well stocked beforehand, despite the impact of the epidemic on the province’s supply chain logistics. Currently, the production of phosphate, glyphosate, organosilicone and fertilizers are significantly affected by the epidemic. So far, productionis running as normal without the occurrence of shutdowns or suspensions.
