Abstract
Over the last decade, reshoring has increasingly attracted the attention of the practitioners and academic community. While a significant number of articles have analyzed drivers, locations and activities involved in reshoring decisions; the decision-making and implementation still lack empirical analyses. The aim of the paper is to develop and empirically refine a framework on reshoring decision-making and implementation processes. Drawing from extant literature, we identify a set of consequential phases. We then conduct three case studies to refine such phases and identify the timing, stakeholders and main criticalities of each phase. Finally, we develop five propositions for future empirical validation.
