Abstract: Abstract As globalization accelerates, multinational companies face a series of complex supply chain risks when entering evolving markets, like policy uncertainty, geopolitical factors, and natural disasters. When Xiaomi first entered the Indian market, it developed a very flexible supply chain plan. By producing locally, selling products via various channels, and making several strategic investments, they were able to mitigate the influence of external risks like market fluctuations and policy changes. Having said that, the complex situation in the Indian market requires its supply chain to be more stable and reliable. The study found that the robustness of the supply chain not only depends on the company’s strategic choices but is also impacted by the local policy environment, market competition conditions, and cultural differences. By studying actual cases, this article mainly discusses the critical factors that affect the stability of international companies’ supply chains and also proposes ways to improve supply chain management. This paper hopes that it can offer some inspiration for other multinational companies that want to enter evolving countries.
