Purpose - The goal of this study is to investigate how the development efficiency of restaurant companies' products of their suppliers, supplier-supplier connection, design quality and adaptation affect the supply chain performance (SCP) of restaurant companies. Design/methodology/approach - We use the stratified random-sampling method for this study. We mailed the research questionnaire to the managers in the cases where they could be identified; a total of 1,063 questionnaires were sent by mail and a useable response of 156 fully completed questionnaires was received. Findings - When the supplier has good development efficiency of restaurant companies' products, they can comply with the requirements of the budget project, and then, finally adapt to the restaurant companies to strengthen mutual relations of coexistence; suppliers with a good connection can make restaurant companies willing to go along with them. Research limitations/implications - The limitation of this study was that the different types of suppliers were not compared, and some restaurants without scaled operations may have different effects on the result. Practical implications - The supplier-supplier connection is established when the suppliers or companies have generated important decisions. The suppliers will cope with the restaurant companies to make the delivery procedure more unhindered and invest in highly specialized equipment in the relationship and finally, improve the SCP. Originality/value - This study focuses on the restaurant companies in partnership: how to cooperate with the suppliers to make good supply efficiency, and thus enhance the SCP of the restaurant companies. Overall, the results of the study have provided reliable instruments for operationalizing the key effect constructs in the analysis of operational performance.
