The concept of supply chain management is a ubiquitous subject in both theoretical and practical analyses. Studies on the implementation of Supply Chain Management by Small and Medium Enterprises are relatively rare and their scope is limited to selected aspects. Hence, the aim of this article is to analyze the implementation of Supply Chain Management concept by Small and Medium-sized Enterprises. The research sample consists of Small and Medium Enterprises of Poland and Romania. The research tool was a survey questionnaire, which was divided into the part identifying the respondents and the substantive part concerning Supply Chain Management (SCM). Likert's five-level scale was used to evaluate the SCM concept application in small and medium entities, which measured the average level of the evaluation of factors in various SCM areas. The results of the study show similar involvement in the implementation of the concept, although there are significant differences in the selected areas, such as cost reduction and concentration on end customers. The research carried out in this paper has evaluated the SCM concept in SMEs measuring the average level in an evaluation of factors concerning different SCM areas. They are identified on the basis similarities and differences in the approach to SCM concept in Polish and Romanian enterprises.

“…Compared with the early 2000s, new competences have emerged, hitherto largely disregarded, such as geographical reach, testifying to Achievements of Polish logistics in international business in the years 2000 to 2006 are commendable, and the prospects until 2020 also look positive. On this basis, with a high degree of probability we can envisage further positive trends in logistics development, and consequently a growing impact of logistics on company competitive advantage in international business [14]. The likely positive changes in modern logistics and in its role in the global economy will inevitably set the course for further research in the twenty-first century.…”

This article presents the results of theoretical and empirical studies on the search for new logistics development paradigms needed to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century global economy. The author reviews the major factors determining the effectiveness of international processes and operations, including logistics success potentials in supply chains. Furthermore, the article proposes methods for measuring logistics performance, specifically the logit model and the model of fuzzy logic, which could be used to assess whether a firm’s planned investments in logistics infrastructure will end in success or failure. The article also evaluates the impact of logistics on the development of international trade in the practice of Polish firms. The studies cover a period before Poland’s accession to the European Union (EU) (2000 to 2004), and after the accession, from 2005 to 2016, and are supplemented with a forecast for logistics development in Polish firms until 2020.

“…Considering the public aspect, it is possible to find a diverse number of elements that relate to sustainable development and are worthy of analysis, e.g., frames of social influence and initiatives connect with the ability to evaluate the social permanence of supply chains. Besides this, the relationships between the business decisions and sustainable development in social areas [56][57][58] are influenced by the company's ethical code towards employees and contractors, and can include honest principles regarding employing the local community, and even delivering employees equipment ensuring hygiene and job security [59,60]. The indirect influence of enterprises on the local community on the macroeconomic scale is equally essential; this influence expresses itself through companies timely and legally paying taxes and associated charges.…”
