“To mitigate risks such as inflexibility in buyer-supplier relationships and interruptions in product delivery due to capacity and production constraints of suppliers purchasing managers prefer to engage with multiple suppliers,” says A Kowshik, an agro commodities and raw materials industry procurement research specialist at SpendEdge.
