This edited work assembles knowledge on wide-ranging indigenous supply chain management (SCM) theories and practices from different African countries, particularly sub-Saharan Africa. The chapters concentrate on how African culture influences supply chain practices' nature, operations, structures, outcomes, and value propositions. This is essential knowledge to facilitate a better understanding of what SCM might mean in the African context while also serving as an avenue to evaluate similarities and differences between cross-country management theories.Africans have historically employed indigenous SCM to address the socioeconomic challenges they face in the coordination of the movement of goods, services, and all processes that transform raw materials into finished goods. By identifying and examining the differences, similarities, and complementarities between various African indigenous SCM concepts and ideologies, this work will inform the development of new models and interventions in response to Africa's complex business management challenges. It will forge new ground for researchers and policymakers regarding effective, efficient, and sustainable solutions to manage global supply chain challenges.

This book focuses on the most recent advancements in the application of digital and innovative technologies for strengthening health supply chains in Africa. While substantial evidence shows how these digital technologies have helped increase health supply chain visibility, efficiency and performance in developed countries, little is known about the challenges and success to apply, adopt and implement in the African context. Therefore, this book brings together contributions from scholars and professionals to form a compendium of practices, challenges, success/failure factors, impact, and socio-cultural peculiarities associated with the adoption and implementation of new digital technologies in transforming health supply chains in various African countries. It helps readers gain insight into the role of technologies and innovations in health supply chain management, as well as for understanding successful and unsuccessful implementation cases in African countries, and how similar scenarios can be replicated or avoided.The book offers a comprehensive guide for educators, researchers, management professionals, non-governmental organizations, and policymakers on how to effectively drive supply chain digital transformation in Africa’s healthcare system.
