Covid-19: Craft status in March and early April
With the well-being of its employees as priority, Craft maintains most of its teams at home, from where they work at full load, while South America faces the second pandemic wave of the new coronavirus, with the appearance of aggressive variants, especially in Brazil. Care and home office go together in most places, like in the USA.
South America: ports, airports and customs remain active, many with the introduction of digital resources. Foreign trade does not stop.
Brazil: 96% of the team works at home, in São Paulo, and other parts of the country, paying attention to the worsening of the pandemic. Ports, airports, terminals and customs have reduced hours, but without difficulties in dispatches
