Reshaping agrifood supply chains

Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings Increasing the sustainability of a food supply chain requires relationships with appropriate partners. Hybrid organizations can scale more quickly by aligning with major retailers, although the arrangement will usually be on the larger operator’s terms. In contrast, scaling can be more enduring if enabled through collaborative innovation with other sustainability-oriented firms that share the same values and supply chain sustainability goals. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives, strategists and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
