Résumé
This article presents the findings of an exploratory study into the role of culture in the deployment of purchasing portfolio strategies. Based on a questionnaire that was previously used in The Netherlands, a survey has been conducted among French purchasing professionals. A comparative analysis was performed on portfolio use, levels of buyer's and supplier's dependence and trust and commitment to identify whether national differences affect purchasers' perceptions and behaviors. The survey results show that cultural differences matter in developing and executing purchasing portfolio strategies.
