larger production runs often reduce per - unit costs by means of economies of scale.
this is typically associated with ______ supply chains.
longer
shorter

Explanation:

Longer supply chains involve more stages, which can lead to larger production runs.

Shorter supply chains have fewer stages and may not have the same level of production volume to fully exploit economies of scale in the same way.

Answer:

Longer
