Abstract

Supply chains are vital units of analysis of the circular economy (CE), and network orchestrators are central to fostering the CE’s essential interorganizational collaboration. However, orchestration mechanisms remain poorly understood. We explore supply chain orchestration (SCO) as an innovative business model to promote CE. Our analysis of The Lost Food Project—an eco-food bank that rescues surplus food to address hunger in Greater Kuala Lumpur—suggests the need to adapt SCO for circularity (as SCO-C). We highlight the challenges that arise when organizations focus on SCO-C: capturing the value of environmental and social profits, the necessity of supportive public policies, and plausible unintended consequences.

食品供应链的循环编排：丢失的食品项目

供应链是循环经济（CE）分析的重要单元，网络协调者是促进循环经济基本组织间协作的核心。然而，人们对编排机制仍然知之甚少。我们探索供应链协调（SCO）作为一种创新的商业模式来促进CE。我们对“丢失的食物项目”（一个拯救剩余食物以解决大吉隆坡地区饥饿问题的生态食品银行）的分析表明，有必要使SCO适应循环（即SCO- c）。我们强调了组织关注SCO-C时出现的挑战：捕捉环境和社会利润的价值，支持性公共政策的必要性，以及可能的意外后果。
