Mercedes-Benz South Africa has restarted the assembly line at its East London plant following what it called a “planned nonproduction period” that ran from June 25 to the end of July.

A spokesperson for the local arm of the German car maker says production restarted, as planned, on July 31, on a two-shift system.

The company produces the C-Class sedan for the local and export markets.
