The company’s supply chain had to suspend operations at some affected locations for about a month. According to Canon Chairman Fujio Mitarai, the company’s recovery process was speedy than predicted, it had added about 50 billion yen ($600 million) to the company’s annual sales. And most of its operation sites and subsidiaries are back on its feet with the production work which started in the mid of March this year.

But on some other locations, the production is still not working smoothly as there are continuous power failures or shortage of raw materials at times. So, in order to defy these problems faced by the company, it is trying to accelerate the construction of its Kyushu Factory which is in southern Japan. This factory will manufacture the key parts of the products. Hence, all these factors point that Japan is recovering slowly from the disaster caused by the powerful Tsunami.
