<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><font face="times new roman, serif">Supply chain management and logistics
(SCML) research has long-supported the need for strong international, marketing-oriented
relationships. Firms rely heavily on these relationships to efficiently and
effectively move the product across international boarders from raw materials
extraction to the final customer. To allow firms to accomplish this task,
supply chain and international marketing scholars have often touted the
benefits of collaboration, integration, and other relational strategies.
Research also points to evidence supporting the benefits of information
exchange, knowledge sharing, and effectively managing business partner
relationships. Surprisingly, little research has been conducted to define
SCML’s relationship to international marketing. Huge gaps remain unexamined. Accordingly,
this special issue welcomes contributions that advance and enrich our
managerial and scholarly thinking at the intersection of international
marketing and global supply chain management.
