What the paper says

The global expansion of supply chain (SC) networks improves the overall performance of the SC and increases an organization’s susceptibility to disruptions within the chain. This study examines the mediating role of supply chain disruption (SCD) between supply chain resilience practice (SCRP) and competitive advantage (CA) of manufacturing companies in Ethiopia. We employed descriptive and explanatory research designs and analyzed the data collected from 347 participants using SEM methods. The findings show that SCRP significantly affects SCD and CA. Moreover, SCRP significantly influences CA, mediated by SCD. Building and maintaining SC resilience reduces disruptions and enhances competitiveness in the ever-changing business landscape. Therefore, manufacturing firms are suggested to minimize disruptions further and obtain a better CA using SC resilience measures.
