Overview

• JLR said its Global Parts Logistics Centre is back online, allowing dealerships and garages to place orders again with some disruption still expected.
• The company told employees, retailers and suppliers that selected manufacturing sections will resume within days, without giving a firm date or output levels.
• The UK has underwritten up to £1.5bn in private lending to bolster JLR’s liquidity and help maintain payments through the recovery period.
• Lower-tier suppliers report acute cash‑flow pressure and say support has not reached them, urging rapid, direct assistance to prevent failures.
• JLR has expanded invoice processing, launched a supplier help desk and manual payments, while losses are estimated at about £50m per week and the company has confirmed some data was compromised.
