Supply Chain & Logistics

Retailers in Canada have highly complex supply chains and logistics networks. Typically, they source globally and must rely on a code of conduct that sets out the core principles suppliers and factories must adhere to.

Retail Council of Canada works with supply chain and logistics professionals to help create resources and policies for best practices conventions.
