) sellers are bracing for product shortages as Chinese workers - worried about the fast-spreading coronavirus - may be unable or unwilling to return to idled factories.
Plugable Technologies founder Bernie Thompson says he could run out of his top-selling triple display laptop docking station by the end of this month, even if factories open as planned next week. “People do have extra inventory, but that will quickly run out” if factories remain shuttered or workers do not return, said Young, who is “self-quarantined” at his Miami home after visiting factories and family in China during the holiday period. He did not visit the epicenter of the outbreak.
“We would have been fine if coronavirus hadn’t happened - but with that extra delay, we won’t get stock in time,” said Thompson, who founded his Redmond, Washington-based company in 2009. That is just the latest challenge for U.S. sellers. Many saw their profitability hit by a prolonged U.S.-China tariff spat last year.
