Définition

A network composed of the buyers and suppliers involved in triangle manufacturing.

Description

Triangle manufacturing is described as buyers (generally, in developed countries) who place orders with manufacturers (in developing countries) who subsequently shift the requested production to affiliated offshore factories in low-wage countries. These manufacturers then ship the finished product directly to the buyer.
