| dc.description.abstract | Supply chain management (SCM) has become a fundamental element to improve avail-ability, efficiency and productivity of products and services in recent decades. The oil industry is involved in a global supply-chain that includes all logistics activities. The purpose of this paper is to review the challenges of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) supply chain management in Ethiopia by undertaken supply Chain management ac-tivities. When we see internationally, the human right to energy, entitles every indi-vidual to have access to adequate, affordable, reliable, safe and environmentally be-nign energy services for personal and domestic uses. It is also a convenient and port-able energy source that is easy to transport and store as an alternative to electricity and environmentally friendly source of energy. However, the country is facing end to end supply chain challenges on accessibility, affordability and convenience of LPG supply chain with different reasons given for the problem. To tackle the real problems, data were collected from all target population, thorough questionnaire and interview. Further, related literatures were reviewed as a secondary source. And the research analyzed both primary and secondary data using qualitative and quantitative data analysis tools then reliability test was done by Cronbach's alpha using SPSS. The major challenges identified by the research are lack of warehouse, transport, foreign currency shortages, higher taxes, lack of collaboration and lack of policy and regula-tions. Finally, the research recommended that the government should give attention to the sector on administering port storage problems, formulating policies and ap-proach members in the Supply chain to work collaboratively to solve their problems | en_US |
