Abstract: The article sustains the view that the vertically contracted marketing system (VCMS) early adopted by the rice industry was the transaction costs economizing response that better fitted historic market circumstances and the industry’s early choice of strategic positioning. Brief information on the industry’s performance, structure and institutional framework is provided. Finally the article speculates about future strategic developments and the need for interdependent fit and adjustment between strategic positioning and supply channel governance structures
