Global supply chains, shaped by globalization and offshoring for cost efficiency, are now shifting due to rising complexities, geopolitical tensions, sustainability concerns, and disruptions. This study examines the underexplored topic of outsourced reshoring, where companies transition from international to domestic suppliers to reduce dependency and enhance resilience. Focusing on Italy’s machinery manufacturing sector, it analyses six case studies to uncover drivers, challenges, and benefits of outsourced reshoring. The research highlights relocations as a strategy for risk mitigation, sustainability, and innovation, offering insights for adapting to the evolving business landscape.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
