I hope everyone is staying safe.
I wanted to give you all an update on Baldwin Estate’s production facility in Nogales Mexico.
As you all know the Mexican Government closed all non-medical manufacturing in the town of Nogales in early April due to Covid19. Based on closure we started giving all new orders a 8 week lead-time. We also extended lead-times on open orders that we did not have in stock at our distribution facility in Kansas.
As of today no official opening has been given for the Nogales, MX production facility. With this in mind we have to make adjustments to lead-times.
· Any current open orders that have already been acknowledged please add additional 4 weeks.
· Any new Estate orders that Baldwin does not have stock will be acknowledged with 12 weeks. This does not affect Baldwin Quickship program.
You should start getting updated acknowledgement early next week on open orders.
I continue to get weekly open order updates if you want to call me to check on a specific line item please do. I’d be happy to work with you to find alternatives in our Quickship Estate Program, Baldwin Reserve or with one of our wholesale suppliers.
Baldwin is extremely hopeful this is a worse case extension. We are already starting to see surrounding states along the northern border in Mexico starting to open up manufacturing. If I get any news good or bad I will be sure to send out update immediately.
Please give me a call if you would like to talk live.
