manufacturing to counter supply chain issues and that other large retailers

such as Pep, Woolworths, Truworths and Edgars are following suit. What

approach to purchasing and supply performance was most probably followed by Pep,

Woolworths, Truworths and Edgars when they looked at their actual performance

and decided to also follow the route of local manufacturing?
