Resilience in the Fashion Industry Supply Chain: State of the Art Literature Review

In a complex and unpredictable world, nowadays classic risk management techniques are often nor sufficient neither adequate to face the occurring disruptive events. When black swans events (low probability—high impact events) take place, many supply chains are not qualified to tackle those happenings in an efficient way. A resilient approach can fill this expertise gap, providing the necessary know-how and mindset qualities to supply chain players in order to tackle those rising disruptions better. In particular, resilience is a key component in the fashion industry supply chain. In the last decades, many companies declined and retired, while several thrived. The resilience approach was one of the keys that divided successful firms from the unprofitable ones. This research provides a broad view of the literature review about resilience approach within the fashion industry supply chain. Furthermore, in ordimpact of possible disruptionser to assist academics and supply chain decision makers, this study will extensively show the state of the art of the current methodologies used to assess and measures resilience in one’s supply chain.
