From the producer of goods or services, suppliers, logistics service providers, warehousemen to retailers who are responsible for supply, they are present during the supply chain process. Every business must identify the supply chain management process of its goods or services well and be able to interact with the actors. Different of these processes should cooperate and interact. Otherwise, there is a possibility of disrupting the process and even business failure. In this chapter, while defining the supply chain, its types, structure and goals are explained.
