| Summary: | This case introduces students to a real enactus project in which a coffee supply chain was created with the goal of establishing a more just supply chain through disintermediation. Through the case, the injustice that exists in coffee supply chains is described to provide a pre-context so that students can grasp the contrast between the intermediated and the disintermediated coffee supply chain. The Enactus team needs to make decisions regarding transportation mode as well as product form in order to balance their sustainability approach according to the social, environmental, and economic bottom lines of the Triple Bottom Line (TBL) sustainability. The purpose of this case is to put students in the position to select an alternative that creates this balance by making relevant carbon emission calculations and discussing implications of decision alternatives on the TBL. |
