It was found that correct management throughout all the processes of the supply chain generates a positive impact in each of its stages and difficulties. The purpose of this article is a systematic investigation of the impact of supply chain management in the meat industry, subject to analysis and the impact it can have on the profitability of companies in the sector. It will also provide the reader (academic, professional or producer) with information on the situation, based on different authors, countries, and types of food.
