Supply Chains today are vulnerable to uncertainties and risks that might disrupt their operations which could lead to a drastic loss in revenue, competitive advantage and profitability etc, if not managed effectively. This is a concern especially in logging companies where unfavourable weather conditions can hinder the production processes, deliveries and sales etc. This paper analyses the risks the supply chain of a logging company is facing, develop a conceptual model for an in-depth study and introduce appropriate resilient strategies to enable the company to bounce back and start operations in the shortest possible time after disruptions.
