Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft (FSG) has announced it will suspend its operation from Thursday due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Like many other countries, the German government has tightened border control and imposed travel restrictions while encouraging remote working to control the spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus.

With those measures affecting FSG’s subcontractors and suppliers as well as workers and shipping company representatives at the yard, its production will be temporarily suspended from Thursday, according to a press release.
