Event Summary
We have experienced the situation in which resilience in logistics and supply chain is an important issue, as a result of the global and wide effects of COVID-19 pandemic on logistics etc. Against that background, this research studied the effects of both the status of implementation of resilience strategies and the pandemic on performances and of companies as well as the activities of logistics and supply chain with a focus on Japan’s manufacturing companies in four major industry sectors. This colloquium, based on the result of the research, analyzes whether the implementation of resilience strategy before or during the pandemic bring benefits to the companies or not, and the topics of discussion includes the meaning of resilience strategy and the measures to promote such strategies.
