Fierce competition in today’s global markets, the introduction of products with thwarted life cycles, and the sky high expectations of customers have forced business enterprise to invest in, and focus attention on, their supply chains. This, together with continuing advances in communications and transportation technologies (e.g., mobile communication, Internet, and overnight delivery), has motivated the continuous evolution of the supply chain and of the techniques to manage it.

She then carried on to introduce the chief guest as well as the main speaker of this seminar, Prof Shatabdi S Das to about 100 students from the department of B.Com Honours who seemed to be curious enough to broaden their azure sky with this diurnal events the college has been providing them.
Being welcomed upon the podium, the first thing that she spoke about was what Supply Chain is. It is basically a model from procurement of raw materials to its processing of goods and sending it to intermediaries till the customers receive it. In this age of internet, no one can ignore the importance of digitisation. Online channel of retail is a phygital mix which means physical and digital. She also spoke on QSR (QUICK SERVICE RESTORER); SKU (STOCK KEEPING UNIT) & went on explaining SCM’s of Amazon, Zara, H & M.
