One of the major challenges of the circular economy has been that existing supply chains have been optimized resulting in a centralized product/production strategy. This centralized strategy has resulted in numerous challenges in existing supply chain strategies resulting in out-of-stock, raw material shortages, and a shift to 'just-in-case' supply chain planning over the past 18 months.
HOWEVER, in a post-COVID world, companies are beginning to re-evaluate their supply chain strategies and considering a shift to de-centralized supply chains, where production, raw material sourcing, and planning incorporate key elements that can enable a circular strategy for their business.
