Supply Risk Managment within Swedish Roasting-Houses : when taste is everything A study of how risk management can become an integral part of the purchasing process (English)
Abstract [en]
Background: The strategic importance of purchasing departments is increasing, yet supply risks are rather uncharted. The procurement of coffee involves supply risks and the purchaser needs to be able to handle these to enable the roasting-house to produce coffee as specified.
Purpose: To chart risks in connection with the procurement of coffee as well as the possibilities of handling these. The thesis also examines if general risk management theories are applicable on the supply risk present within Swedish roasting-houses and can become an integral partof the purchasing process.
Method: A qualitative case study of the purchasing process of Swedish roasting- houses.
Result: An a priori-model, which can serve as the basis for evaluation of the purchasing process and risk management of a business, elaborated to fit the Swedish roasting business.
