Abstract
This study explores how geographical location, especially in mountainous regions, influences companies' supply chain structures. Given that mountain-based firms face unique geographic, logistical, and infrastructural challenges, understanding their supply chain configurations compared to non-mountain firms is crucial. Using secondary data from FactSet and spatial analysis through QGIS, this research employs propensity score matching and regression. Key structural dimensions analysed include horizontal, vertical, and spatial complexity, alongside network centrality and density. The findings aim to show if mountain firms adopt distinctive, resilience-oriented supply chain configurations, contributing theoretical insights into location-driven structural adaptation and practical guidance for enhancing regional resilience.
