Starting with unprocessed raw materials and ending with the final customer using the finished goods, the
supply chain links many companies
together.
The material and informational interchanges in the logistical process
stretching from acquisition of raw materials to delivery of finished products
to the end user.
All vendors, service providers and
customers are links in the supply
chain. Council of Supply Chain ManGreen Supply Chain Management
