Supply chain models of food supplement manufacturers from comission-based sales point of view

Abstract

Dietary supplement companies set strategic goals to be achieved in order to increase their competitiveness (eg cost reduction, greater flexibility, higher level of service, focus on core business, etc.), important elements of which are the way the supply chain is formed and the way they are sold. Nowadays, one of the common variants of the sales method is the establishment of a supply chain network with commission sales.There is little literature on the supply chain design of companies producing food supplements on a commission basis, so this dissertation deals with the typical design options of the aforementioned supply chains.
