Nowadays, the complexity of supply chain networks is increasing due to the globalization of supply chain. It is becoming challenging for decisions makers to identify and understand the supply chains issues using the traditional practices. To cope with this challenges, we develop a web-based interactive visualization prototype. This model enhances the decision-making process of managers with different views of the same supply chain. It describes nodes as well as edges of the supply network simultaneously. This system also allows supply chain managers to get information of the network based on their demands. We illustrate our approach with a supply network visualization from the real-world multi-echelon supply network data, specifically the foods industry.
