"Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is poised to restart manufacturing operations across its West Midlands and Merseyside sites this Wednesday, marking a significant step in its recovery from a major cyberattack. The luxury car maker has also unveiled a new financing scheme to aid struggling suppliers, offering upfront cash payments to qualifying firms affected by the security breach. Production workers are scheduled to return as operations recommence at the Wolverhampton engine plant and the Coleshill, Birmingham, battery assembly centre from Wednesday."
"The company will simultaneously reactivate its stamping facilities in Castle Bromwich, Halewood in Merseyside, and Solihull. Crucial areas of its Solihull vehicle production plant, including the body shop, paint shop, and logistics operations centre which supplies parts to JLR's global manufacturing network are also set to resume. Further operational expansion is expected later this week, with the vehicle manufacturing plant in Nitra, Slovakia, and the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport production lines at the Solihull facility slated to follow suit."
