Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the direct and indirect impact of entrepreneurial orientation on the performance of Jordanian food industry companies through supply chain management as a mediator variable. A simple random sample of companies operating in the food industry was selected, and a questionnaire was used as the primary data collection tool. Several statistical methods were employed notably multiple and simple regression analyses.
The study found a statistically significant impact of entrepreneurial orientation on the performance of Jordanian food industry companies. Additionally, there was a statistically significant impact of entrepreneurial orientation on supply chain management and a statistically significant effect of supply chain management orientation on performance. Furthermore, the study found a statistically significant effect of entrepreneurial orientation on the performance of Jordanian food industry companies in the presence of supply chain management, indicating that supply chain management partially mediates the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and performance. Among the study's prominent recommendations is the need to enhance the innovation process to enable companies to continuously introduce new products and the importance of improving risk management strategies.
