Supply Chains
A supply chain is the network through which goods and services move from raw material sources to the final customer. It involves various steps like sourcing raw materials, manufacturing, transportation, warehousing, and distribution. Each stage is connected and depends on the next to ensure products are produced efficiently and arrive on time. Effective supply chain management coordinates these activities to reduce costs, improve quality, and meet customer demands, all while adapting to changes like market shifts or disruptions. Overall, it ensures products are available when and where they are needed.
