Supply chains have evolved over time. Originally, they were linear, with companies in a sequence from raw materials to distribution. Some did everything themselves. Now, some are looking to localize or nearshore their supply chains. Recently, the virtual supply chain has emerged. Companies use a network of partners to minimize cost and adapt quickly. They also use technology to manage operations and coordinate with partners. Today's supply chains are complex, involving hundreds of companies in multiple countries. Materials and products may cross borders during production before reaching customers. Learn how modern supply chains are shaping the future!
