Volkswagen says reaches deal with suppliers to resume production

[FRANKFURT] German car giant Volkswagen said on Tuesday it has reached a deal with suppliers to begin deliveries again after a stoppage that forced the group to halt production at several plants.

"The affected sites are preparing step-by-step to resume production," the statement read.

VW and suppliers Cartrim and ES Guss - which make seat covers and cast gearbox parts - had returned to talks on Monday after negotiations into the small hours of Saturday yielded no results.
