Buying companies in the food industry increasingly recognize the need to cultivate relationships with their suppliers. Social capital and power are important to understand buyer–supplier relationships. Maintaining these relationships appears highly dependent on the degree of information sharing.,The study investigates how power and social capital dimensions are related to information sharing. A survey of first-tier suppliers in the Dutch meat processing industry was carried out. The data from 82 suppliers was analyzed using partial least squares.,It appears that expert power contributes to the cognitive and structural social capital. In contrast, coercive power showed no influence at all. Cognitive and structural social capital dimensions have a direct link to relational social capital, which significantly improves buyer–supplier information sharing in the food industry.,Buying companies can encourage supplier information sharing by building up their own expertise and cultivating social relationships. They should refrain from strong-handed practices.,Companies in the food and food processing industry are dependent on effective information exchange for their very survival. This study investigates the role of power and social capital in making such exchange possible and sustainable.

社会资本、权力和信息共享——来自荷兰肉类加工业的证据

食品行业的采购公司越来越认识到与供应商建立关系的必要性。社会资本和权力对于理解买方-供应商关系很重要。维持这些关系似乎高度依赖于信息共享的程度。本研究调查了权力和社会资本维度如何与信息共享相关。对荷兰肉类加工业的一级供应商进行了调查。使用偏最小二乘法分析了 82 家供应商的数据。看来专家权力对认知和结构社会资本有贡献。相比之下,强制力完全没有影响。认知和结构性社会资本维度与关系社会资本有直接联系,这显着改善了食品行业的采购商-供应商信息共享。,采购公司可以通过建立自己的专业知识和培养社会关系来鼓励供应商信息共享。他们应该避免强硬的做法。食品和食品加工业中的公司依靠有效的信息交流来生存。本研究调查了权力和社会资本在使这种交换成为可能和可持续方面的作用。
