The Lean Supply Chain: Managing the Challenge at Tesco

Over the last two decades Tesco has emerged as a dominant player in the UK market and a leading global retailer. The Lean Supply Chain: Managing the Challenge at Tesco, 2nd Edition explores how a key part of the retailer's performance has been the development of highly capable supply chains to serve its needs. This second edition contains new chapters on rebuilding consumer trust and corporate social responsibility (CSR), as well as updated material on the current challenges and themes for development being considered by Tesco.

This prize-winning book examines how Tesco has used the key principles of customer loyalty, simplicity of operations and Lean thinking to drive growth, and how these ideas have been applied to the management of its supply chain. Drawing on the authors' deep knowledge of how Tesco has developed from both an academic and practitioner perspective, The Lean Supply Chain : Managing the Challenge at Tesco, 2nd Edition challenges conventional business thinking and demonstrates Tesco's most successful strategies through bona fide examples.
