Acknowledgement
First of all we would thank Almighty ALLAH for guiding me to the safe completion of this task.
We would acknowledge my supervisor and class teacher Dr. Masood who helped us out a lot through the various stages of this project. He was always willing to fill in the gaps in our knowledge about supply chain management with practical examples.
We are also thankful to our parents who accommodated us during those long hours of work in our project development and all the friends and colleagues who equally encouraged us.
