This chapter discusses vulnerability and the adaptation strategies of Finnish food supply chains in
the context of climate change. A case study was conducted in 2012 within three Finnish regions.
The people interviewed were food entrepreneurs, the managers of food enterprises and relevant
stakeholders. According to the study, food enterprises seem to trust local and decentralised food
supply chains as an adaptation strategy for combating climate change. Hence, the case study
discusses the benefits and learning challenges of food supply chain localisation and introduces the
idea of food supply chains that react proactively to climate change issues.
