After a year of collaborative work, our guide aims tohelp shippers and logisticians set up and manage circular supply chains.

This methodological guide is based on the 6 workshops conducted by Citwell - a consulting firm specializing in operations and supply chain transformation - with members of France Supply Chain. The results are aggregated according to the following pillars:

  1. Model and value sharing
  2. Multi-location sizing
  3. Forecasts and expenses
  4. Circularity management
  5. Operational management, continuous improvement & data
  6. Organization

To ensure the richness and strength of the workshops, the sample companies were selected in such a way as to guarantee a diversity of size, organization and sector of activity.

This publication is the result of this collective work, written by several hands, and is only the beginning of the epic.

Many thanks to Epalia, Michelin, Orange, Lizee, Rev Mobilities, LRPI and Valused.

And to contributors Décathlon, Groupement Hospitalier de Territoire Grand Paris Nord Est, Manutan, Legrand, L'Oréal, OEMServices, Renault, Saint-Gobain, Soroa.

A plea for a circular supply chain

A white paper revealing the central role of supply chains in green reindustrialization.

The work and recommendations in this publication are based on a study carried out by Citwell, a management consultancy, and Soroa, an ecological strategy consultancy, with the support of INEC, among companies and trade federations involved in a multi-organizational approach (shippers, transporters, recyclers, waste managers, institutions) to identify the changes needed in the supply chain to comply with the Paris agreements and Objective 12 of the SDGs, while at the same time addressing the inevitable scarcity of resources on a continent that is highly dependent on imports.
