The objective of this section is to draw out the principal actors in the baladi bread supply chain. Building on information from within the literature and fieldwork data that I have gathered, each actor will be listed and described to clearly outline their role in the baladi bread system. This process will set up the discussion in subsequent chapters to identify logistics and distortions in the baladi bread supply chain. By examining the role of all relevant actors, it is easier to understand their relations and interests in this process.
