References: 2. Supply Chain Management Effective supply chain management is the coordination between the various players in the chain and each channel member operates independently (Ganeshan R & Harrison T, 1995). The genuine trick for the integration is the free flow of information, cooperation and respecting each business’s independence (Andersen, 2008: 30).
