Over the last ten years the reach and the sophistication of international supply chains has increased. The three main factors influencing global supply cham design are manufacturing operations, distribution and transportation. These logistic networks connect the supphers base to its end customer goods and services. There are always several companies seeking to maximise their own profits m any single global supply cham. But tt is in the interest of each company in the cham to deal with the others fairly, as their mutual success depends on every link in the chain operating efficiently. Failure can also be shared.
