Abstract:
	
		| 
				
 
Li & Fung is one of Hong Kong's most successful trading companies. The company 
deals in various types of consumer goods like textiles, toys, sporting equipment 
and household items. Founded about 90 years back, Li & Fung employs 2,500 people 
worldwide. It has offices in 40 countries. The Harvard educated Fung brothers, 
Victor and William are the architects of the company's success. The brothers 
believe that even in the age of the Internet, trading intermediaries have an 
important role to play. They feel that the role of a trader goes beyond matching 
the needs of the buyers and sellers to add value in innovative ways. As 2003 
draws to a close, Li & Fung also knows that it will have to keep innovating to 
stay ahead of other players. This case can be used to discuss global supply 
chain management in an MBA class.
