19.08.2022 General information about the current situation at PIKO

Dear PIKO friends,

2022 is an exceptionally busy year and we are grateful to all of you for being so loyal to PIKO, as you also showed with your visit to our "Open Day".

We are working hard to deliver the products you ordered, which is extremely difficult due to container transit times from China of up to 110 days. 110 days is almost 4 months. This means that products that we produced in our Chashan factory in March, shipped in April, are now arriving in August. We are not used to this kind of delay in the history of PIKO and neither are you. Not only has the cost of container shipping increased by 4-5 times, now there is the added delay in delivery. - When will this get better? I cannot tell you.

Unfortunately, there is the added disaster that we are not getting the required quantity of micro-chips for decoders.
