Dear Valued Customer,

Following up on our letter of March 31, the following is an update on the operational status of Vishay’s manufacturing facilities.  As of today, Vishay factories in the following countries continue to experience some level of significant production disruption:

• Dominican Republic – improvement from 3/31
• Mexico – improvement from 3/31  
• Philippines – improvement from 3/31
• Malaysia – no change from 3/31
• India – no change from 3/31

Since March 31^st, production at Vishay facilities in France and Italy has resumed and we are working to restore these plants to pre-shutdown levels. 

In all of the above cases, manufacturing disruptions continue to be the result of quarantine, travel, or other legal restrictions imposed by local authorities, over which Vishay has no control.  We remain committed to full compliance with such regulations, and to doing everything possible to insure the wellbeing of our employees, and of all citizens, living within the countries in which we operate.

Your local Vishay sales contacts can provide further detail on which Vishay products are manufactured at these locations (and it should be pointed out that there may be more than one facility in some countries), and with regards to how these disruptions will impact your specific orders.  All other Vishay facilities worldwide remain fully operational, or have only a slightly reduced capacity load as a result of Covid-19.

Thank you for your understanding.

Regards,

David Valletta

Executive VP, Worldwide Sales
