Western-European consumers have become not only more demanding on product availability in retail outlets but also on other food attributes such as quality, integrity, and safety. When (re)designing food supply-chain networks, from a logistics point of view, one has to consider these demands next to traditional efficiency and responsiveness requirements. The concept ‘quality controlled logistics’ (QCL) hypothesizes that if product quality in each step of the supply chain can be predicted in advance, goods flows can be controlled in a pro-active manner and better chain designs can be established resulting in higher product availability, constant quality, and less product losses. The paper discusses opportunities of using real-time product quality information... |

In the last decade, supply chain management has played an important role to lead agribusiness today to succeed in their business goals, to gain competitive advantages, and to improve business performance. As the result of that, there has been extensive studying in a popular topic of strategic supply chain management in order to improve business performance as well as along supply chain performance under the real situation. This is because in current business world, supply chain practices are crucial to influence many agribusinesses to continuously adapt proper supply chain management in their nature of business. This paper will propose a conceptual framework of supply chain practices and supply chain performance indicators of the Australian Lamb Industry. |

Supply chain management in grain marketing has become very important with the maturity of the industry. This is particularly important in the Canadian grain marketing system which has experienced disruptions for various reasons over many years. These problems have been the topic of numerous industry evaluations, have resulted in a complaint about service obligations and recently have been addressed by the Estey Commission. A detailed model of the supply chain in the Canadian grain logistics system was developed in this paper to evaluate factors that cause disruptions, as well as the effect of several important logistics and marketing strategies on system performance. The results indicated that in a normal year there is sufficient randomness throughout... |

Since Womack et al. (1990) published “The Machine that Changed the World”, showing the results of an international assembly plant benchmarking study carried out by the MIT International Motor Vehicle Program, the Lean Production paradigm, initially based on the Toyota Production System, has been applied successfully by an increasing number of leading companies within the automotive industry. Currently, Lean Production methodologies and tools have already shown their potential, both in manufacturing and service sectors, to improve dramatically productivity, speed, responsiveness, delivered value, and profits. Lean Manufacturing has also been applied by large companies in the agri-food sector, but there is little information on these applications available... |

O mercado nacional de FLV (frutas, legumes e verduras) vem crescendo significativamente nos últimos anos. Contudo, devido à grande perecibilidade destes produtos, a qualidade dos mesmos está condicionada a processos de padronização, seleção, classificação, embalagem e transporte adequados, a fim de evitar as perdas que são elevadas. Para tanto, é necessária uma perfeita sintonia entre os agentes deste mercado de forma a oferecer com agilidade e eficiência um produto de qualidade ao consumidor. Como os produtores raramente executam estes processos, cabe aos seguimentos a jusante realizá-los, como o segmento atacadista, representado pelas CEASAs e por poucas empresas atacadistas. Assim, o presente trabalho buscou analisar os sistemas de comercialização de... |

One of the prerequisites for a supply chain network is the existence of a focal company, which possesses power to coordinate the network in order to realize its strategic objectives. Power represents one of the major elements of the supply chain management and seems to have been treated in the literature in contrasting ways from the two sides “dark” and “bright”. Using literature review we examine how these sides of power affect supply chain management from the viewpoint of the focal company with specific attention to coordination and cooperation issues and whether it can be used as a tool to promote the overall supply chain effectiveness. |

The national market for FLV (fruits, legumes and vegetables) has grown significantly in recent years. However, due to the high perishability of these products, their quality is subject to appropriate processes of standardization, selection, classification, packaging and transportation to avoid losses, which are high. This requires a complete harmony between the players/agents in this market to offer the consumer high quality products with speed and efficiency. Since the producers rarely perform these procedures, it is up to the segments, such as the wholesale segment, represented by CEASAs and wholesaler companies. Thus, this study sought to analyze the systems of two marketing wholesaler companies of fruits, legumes and vegetables in the metropolitan area... |

Recent study by Meat & Livestock Australia revealed that cost competitiveness and market development issues in supply chain are the major factors for a long term decline of the Australian Beef industry. This study, based on the explanation of transaction cost theory argues that competitive performance of an industry depends on improving cost efficiency across the whole of supply chain, the underlying value chain, and the relationship among the stakeholders in the industry. With a main objective to investigate the underlying factors of developing competent inter-firm relationship that influence the supply chain performance and competitiveness, this study presents details of a survey carried out and tests the hypothesis that inter-organizational... |

The research topic of power relationships has been receiving increasingly more attention lately. However, only a few scientific works have studied power in the context of supply chain management. In this regard, intriguing research questions arise of how to distinguish among and deal with negative and positive effects of power in order to avoid problems and use power as an effective tool for supply chain management appear to be an important one. An important challenge, therefore, is to find out what role power plays in supply chain networks and how it affects supply chain management with specific attention to coordination and cooperation, and whether power can be utilized as a tool to promote the overall supply chain effectiveness. Therefore, the aim of... |
