Summary

The majority of Swiss agri-food companies source from global supply chains. Yet, only occasionally supply chain initatives achieve the desired improvements in sustainability performance. In close collaboration with six companies of two important sectors of the Swiss economy – chocolate and textile – this project will identify and analyse various supply chain management options in order to support science-based decision making with respect to global supplier management.
