The Correlation Between Supply Chain Management and Sustainable Development: A Case Study of Coffee from Baoshan, Yunnan

This paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the coffee supply chain and its relationship with sustainable development in Yunnan Province, using Baoshan coffee as a case study. The research reveals that local coffee enterprises in Baoshan primarily focus on selling coffee raw materials, operating at the lower end of the value chain with relatively low added value. The main obstacles to their development are issues related to the organizational, technological, informational, and financial aspects of the supply chain, particularly concentrated in the critical upstream and midstream segmentsplanting and production. To address these challenges, the paper proposes an innovative development approach for the Baoshan coffee supply chain based on the integration of the "Four Chains." This approach explores sustainable development strategies for the Baoshan coffee supply chain from the perspectives of organizational, technological, informational, and financial chains, incorporating modern technologies such as the Internet, IoT, and big data, as well as concepts of supply chain integration and supply chain finance. The goal is to establish a robust coffee supply chain environment and achieve sustainable development for Baoshan coffee.
