Legal and contractual frameworks for supply chain management and distribution networks are essential to helping businesses operate smoothly worldwide.

Deloitte Legal professionals have extensive experience in supporting domestic as well as cross-border transactions in all major industries. Our approach is to avoid disputes and litigation by drafting and negotiating appropriate, unambiguous and enforceable contracts at all stages of the supply chain.

Deloitte Legal specialists take businesses' commercial objectives and translate them into robust contractual documentation including general terms and conditions appropriate to a variety of distribution (e.g. agency, dealership, franchising and commission), supply, logistics and transportation agreements as well as export regulations and customs.
