Abstract

Grounded in middle-range theory (MRT), this study explores supply chain resilience (SCRes) during the 2021 Henan floods through 54 interviews with agri-food industry practitioners. The findings reveal SCRes to be a multi-level framework determined by individuals, organizations, supply chains, and br...
