“…In addition, establishing partnerships helps with needs, such as those related to the donation of goods (Heaslip and Kovacs, 2019; Rasouli, 2019). Humanitarian actions that require SCM similar to that in business operations are those related to the formation of food banks to fight hunger, including inventory management, purchases, product compatibility, and the means of collection, distribution and delivery (Gómez-Pantoja et al. , 2021).…”
