Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of the domain of supply chain planning in the pulp and paper industry. A short description of the industry and its particular characteristics is provided along with a short discussion on what differentiates pulp and paper from other industries. Key papers in the field are also reviewed and discussed. The chapter focus of the key decisions and planning problems in supply chain planning at the strategic, tactical and operational levels. This relates for all the process steps included in the chain, that is, procurement, production, distribution and sales. Industrial cases are describes as examples. In addition, the chapter discusses emerging concepts and important issues in the field, such as the challenge of coordinating sales and operations as well as anticipating and adapting the transformation of the traditional pulp and paper supply chain into an integrated biorefinery supply chain.
