Abstract

Supply Chain Integration (SCI) has attracted increasing attention in Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) literature as it could be a very useful tool for risk mitigation. At the same time, companies in several sectors are experiencing a transition towards more circular and sustainable business models, which poses new challenges and risks for firms. Despite the relevance of integrative practices in supply chains to deal with risks and uncertainties, evidence about the role of SCI for dealing with risks of Circular Economy (CE) is still lacking. The focus of this paper is on the causal link between SCI and SCRM in a circular economy context, with the main aim of investigating the effects of SCI and SCRM practices combined with CE on company performance. For this research, a multiple case-study approach was adopted involving several companies at different levels in the furniture industry. The results are expected to guide companies in their transition towards CE business models, being able to better deal with CE risks through integrative practices and obtaining an overall increase of efficiency, particularly in costs, due to the optimization and green use of waste materials.
