Logistics outsourcing is a widely adopted practice by companies to reduce costs, focus on core operations and achieve competitive advantage. Logistics providers offer valuable resources to a firm, sometimes conforming a strategic outsourcing relationship where both parties obtain considerable benefits that go beyond basic operations. This study focuses on supply chain disruptions, one of the most common factors that disrupts supply chains around the world, especially in the current context of increasing natural disasters due to climate change, political instability due to war or conflicts, and other diverse intentional and unintentional factors that disrupt a supply chain. With the aid of a qualitative case study performed on the agricultural industry of Perú, this research set the objective of getting a better understanding on the landscape of the relationship between a company and its thirdparty logistics provider, and how this relationship develops in a situation of supply chain disruptions. By presenting five propositions based on a detailed literature review, this study reaches the following results: (a) Supply chain disruptions are a factor considered by companies when deciding to outsource logistics, aligning with previous literature on supply chain risk management. (b) Supply chain disruptions affect positively and negatively on the relationship of a company and its logistics provider, in accordance with the resource-based theory and the transaction cost theory. And (c), supply chain disruptions don’t enhance the relationship of a company with its logistics provider by developing strategic outsourcing practices due to contextual factors. This contradicts previous findings, although the contextual factors identified fall under the classification of geographical differences, which have proven to be an influential factor for supply chain management in comparative studies across different geographical regions.
