Abstract

We introduce an approach to investigate structural change on supply chains. We put forward a methodology to generate scenarios based on stakeholders¿ views. In addition, we illustrate how the approach can be implemented with a major project on the sustainability of the UK clothing and textile retail supply chain. We discuss the economic, social and environmental impact of one of the pilot scenarios, i.e. leasing of clothing.
