This book is about an analysis of agility in the Ghanaian pineapple
supply chain for export. It deals with issues on how managers in
the supply chain might cope with changes which are unpredictable or
uncertain against the performance of its main competitors in the
UK. Using a scale proposed by van der Vorst (2000), the supply
chain bottlenecks were identified. Interviews both in Gahana and in
the UK enabled the authors to calculate agility gap ratios of the
Ghanaian pineapple supply chain based on Oosterhout et al. (2006).
It could be concluded that those involved in the Ghanaian pineapple
supply chain needed to be more agile in the way they adapt to
importers' needs. The Ghanaian supply chain could be considered the
least agile confirming that that country has been losing market
share in recent years. Proposed agility redesign variables and
enablers were then derived for the agility gaps found to embed
agility in to the Ghanaian supply chain.
