It describes the structure of these supply chains and how they operate. It also considers the environmental impacts of food production, distribution and consumption. Food supply chains, or value chains, cover every stage of the food system from production through to final consumption. Or all that happens ‘from farm to fork’. This report focuses mainly on Europe. But a European food supply chain will soon be a thing of the past. As European retailers expand internationally, the links in the chain are lengthening. Food is sourced all year round from all over the world. We are moving rapidly towards a global food supply chain. The sustainability of the food system is considered in terms of its energy consumption and emissions. It also covers the environmental impacts of intensive farming, which are threatening long-term food production. Actors in food value chains Retailers – also referred to as ‘supermarkets’. They control the ‘point of sale’ where food is sold to consumers. Processors – food and drink manufacturers, whose business is to alter the composition of raw ingredients to create new types of food products. Producers – farmers who grow the food. Suppliers – all actors in the chain who supply products for retailers to sell. Suppliers can cover exporters / importers, wholesalers, processors and producers, depending on the product. Structure The first section of this report – Food value chains – examines the relationships between the different actors in the value chain. It describes how a few, large retailers coordinate the activities of other actors along the chain. Section two – A sustainable system? – looks at the broader impacts of current food production. It considers the environmental impacts of the food system at its various stages, from agricultural production to household waste. It provides clear evidence that 5 the current system, given its rate of energy consumption and use of natural resources, is unsustainable. The appendix takes a more detailed look at the food system. It provides facts and figures on retailers, processors, producers and food service. It also highlights the consolidation trends that are affecting the industry as a whole. Summary The changing structure of European food supply chains… From supply to demand… Retailers were once the final link in a supply chain. Now they are the first link in a demand chain. Power concentrates at the most strategic part of the value chain. The actor who occupies this

Tekstin aiheena on jo monin paikoin ja tavoin alkanut teollisten sivilisaatioiden ja modernismin kehityskertomuksen romahdus. Tekstin ensimmäiset 8 lukua käsittelevät erilaisia teorioita, käsityksiä ja vapaampaankin ajatuksenlentoon nojaavia näkökulmia romahdukseen. Ne eivät siis missään nimessä edusta ViPun poliittisia käsityksiä tai tavotteita, vaan pohjustavat alustavia poliittisia johtopäätöksiä, jotka esitetään luvussa 9. Toisin sanoen luvut 1-8 pyörittelevät aihetta suuntaan ja toiseen ja luku 9 esittää välitilinpäätöksen, jonka on edelleen tarkoitus tarkentua ja elää tilanteen mukaan. Tätä romahdus-osiota on myös tarkoitus lukea muiden ViPun teoreettisten tekstien kanssa, niiden ristivalotuksessa. 1 Mikä romahdus?

  • Part I: Introduction
    Part I: Introduction “Perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason.” -Thomas Paine, Common Sense (1776) “For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst and provide for it.” -Patrick Henry (1776) “I am aware that many object to the severity of my language; but is there not cause for severity? I will be as harsh as truth. On this subject I do not wish to think, or speak, or write, with moderation. No! No! Tell a man whose house is on fire to give a moderate alarm; tell him to moderately rescue his wife from the hands of the ravisher; tell the mother to gradually extricate her babe from the fire into which it has fallen -- but urge me not to use moderation in a cause like the present. The apathy of the people is enough to make every statue leap from its pedestal, and to hasten the resurrection of the dead.” -William Lloyd Garrison, The Liberator (1831) “Gas is running low . .” -Amelia Earhart (July 2, 1937) 1 2 Dear Reader, Civilization as we know it is coming to an end soon. This is not the wacky proclamation of a doomsday cult, apocalypse bible prophecy sect, or conspiracy theory society.

Ruppert -- But when the run on the dollar begins, OPEC will inevitably at some point switch its pricing to the Euro, which the entire world is wrangling - much to Europe's chagrin - into not only a safe-haven currency, but a profitable one. The next house is being built before the old one is abandoned. When the run on the dollar begins, it will be as if the rest of the world declared war on the United States of America by launching a missile, dropping a bomb, or landing an army at Bethany Beach, Delaware. That this will lead ultimately to widespread global warfare seems certain. This is exactly the way the administration is setting it up to appear to the American people. Think of 9/11 times fifty. The rest of the world is merely defending itself with non-violent means - for the moment. But it will be portrayed as an attack upon the US. "Why?" George Bush will ask, rhetorically. "They hate us because of our freedom." And, barring a miracle, the end results will be exactly the same as from a physical attack: devastation so complete and unthinkable - magnified by the brutal impacts of Peak Oil - that only a few will even try to prepare for it. That is sad because preparation will make all the difference (barring luck or divine intervention) in who survives and to what extent they remain intact and functioning afterwards.

Prof. Poonsak Sangsunt (MOE Representative) Examined on : 23 June 2004 Approved for Graduation on : Graduate School of Business Assumption University Bangkok, Thailand June 2004 ABSTRACT There is an intense competition in the retail business. Customers have many alternatives to select. They move away from tradition trade to modern trade such as supermarket. One of the several reasons is sales promotion tools which are used by supermarkets to attract the customers. Therefore, it is useful and interesting to study the relationship between sales promotion tools and consumers behavior response. Tops Supermarket is chosen for this study. The research problem for this study is "What is the relationship between sales promotion tools and consumer behavior". The objective of this research is to find out the relationship of four different sales promotion tools which are coupon, price discount, buy-one-get-one-free, and premium, with four different consumer behavior responses which are brand switching, brand loyalty, stockpiling, and purchase acceleration. The research instrument was administered 400 respondents, both male and female which were completed by the target population who have experienced in shopping at Tops Supermarket. After data were collected from respondents, the data were processed by SPSS program.
