Module 5 Sell it & Service It: Retail Considerations
Part 5 of 12 Retail stores the final frontier of supply chain management? Well, not quite, but retail is an extremely important supply chain consideration. Retail facilities can be the final connection between the supply chain and the consumer. A weak retail link can render the rest of your supply chain useless. What are the supply chain responsibilities of retail facilities? Retail facilities handle materials, produce services, manufacture retail experiences, and move product throughout their facilities.
This is the 5th installment in Arizona State University's twelve-part introduction to supply chain management video series developed by Eddie Davila, Jeff Hough, Randy Cates, Dawn Feldman, Dan Ichikawa, Ian Schmoel, and Matt Hardy. ASU, the W. P. Carey School of Business, and the Supply Chain Management Department are proud and happy to share this video series with supply chain management departments, supply chain instructors, career specialists in high schools and universities, as well as industry leaders in an effort to inspire a new generation of supply chain management professionals across the country and around the world.
