Interfirm collaborative arrangements seem to have great potential, but further investigation is needed to identify their latest developments in emerging countries like Brazil. The main objective of this research aims to identify and evaluate the role of the collaborative supply chain framework (CSCF) proposed by Simatupang and Sridharan (2005) in structuring relationships between producers, wholesalers and retailers in Brazil. The research found undeniable evidence that the CSCF model well represents the
structure of a collaborative relationship and that its implementation improves the capacity of the distribution channel to handle better market changes.
