supply chain links many companies together

logistical process stretching from acquisition of raw

 Supply Chain
 Definition from Wikipedia
A supply chain is a system of organizations, people,
activities, information, and resources involved in
moving a product or service from supplier to
customer. Supply chain activities involve the
transformation of natural resources, raw materials,
and components into a finished product that is
delivered to the end customer.

management activities. Importantly, it also includes
coordination and collaboration with channel
partners, which can be suppliers, intermediaries,
third party service providers, and customers. In
essence, supply chain management integrates supply

companies.
