Closed-Loop Supply Chains (CLSC) offer companies a unique opportunity to
improve their profits whilst serving societal responsibility. The
management of CLSC differs in a number of ways from managing supply
chains in general. The book examines these differences and how these
differences may be dealt with in practice, by offering a concrete
framework, introducing the different aspects related to CLSC and their
mutual relations, in a systematic logical way as well as cases clustered
according to the inputs for a CLSC. The framework and especially the
cases from successful companies offer the reader an invaluable help to
build and improve CLSC.
