While stories about the distribution network of Marico are well known, I figure the stories about their supply chain must be legendary. In my previous article, I tried to understand the values that Marico stands for. As I tried to understand how the sourcing works, I also realized that it exemplifies one of the core values of Marico – transparency and openness.
