A supply chain is a group of suppliers that work together to generate a single product for a firm. The
chain is made up of nodes or "links" that can include various producers for parts, the finished product,
the warehouse where it is held, the distribution centers where it is distributed, and ultimately the shop
where a customer can buy it. The chain idea is crucial since each link is connected in a certain direction
and sequence, and you can't get to the next one without traveling via the previous one. Each connection
increases the amount of time and money spent, and may include labor, parts, and transportation. Every
product a firm sells may have its own supply chain, even if it may utilize some of the same suppliers

deciding which method is ideal for bringing the products, consider how urgent or emergence the
goods are, as well as the lead time, before deciding on the best method.

Introduction:
A supply chain is a group of suppliers that work together to generate a single product for a firm.
The chain is made up of nodes or "links" that can include various producers for parts, the
finished product, the warehouse where it is held, the distribution centers where it is distributed,
and ultimately the shop where a customer can buy it. The chain idea is crucial since each link is
connected in a certain direction and sequence, and you can't get to the next one without traveling
via the previous one. Each connection increases the amount of time and money spent, and may
include labor, parts, and transportation. Every product a firm sells may have its own supply
chain, even if it may utilize some of the same suppliers (leonard, 2020).
A supply chain involves a series of steps involved to get a product or service to the customer.
The steps include moving and transforming raw materials into finished products, transporting
those products, and distributing them to the end-user. The entities involved in the supply chain
include producers, vendors, warehouses, transportation companies, distribution centers, and
retailers.

distribute a specific product or service.

distribution, finance, and customer service.
