Supercompra: Sourcing from Small Andean Farmers
As Juan Pedro Zapata, Supercompra’s CEO, what is your recommendation for Supercompra in the face of small supplier withdrawals, given its procurement goals and the parent company’s business objectives. Specifically:

Considering the two options – (1) rekindle relationship with small farmers, or (2) continue to expand relations with bigger farmers and local distributors–what is your recommendation for the proximity platform program. Please justify your recommendation and provide supplier management plans in moving forward.
