Abstract—The purpose of this paper is to explore the resilience that Al-Madina Logistics can provides to its customer's supply chain. Al-Madina plays the role of third party logistics & helps to facilitate the flow of goods & services within different supply chains that have different products such as Oasis bottle of water & Macdonald's boxes that used to wrap the food at the restaurant. The findings are based on interview with the supply chain manager at Al-Madina Logistics. The paper distinguishes between a proactive and reactive aspect of resilience & shows the relationship between Supply Chain Risk (SCR), supply chain resilience (SCRes) & supply chain vulnerability (SCV).
