Purpose: the aim of the article is to evaluate supply chain resilience strategies adopted by an industrial cluster to cope with the lack of critical materials originated from the Ukraine crisis Design/methodology/approach: the study analyzes historical time series between the 2014 and 2022 Ukrainian crisis and assess import concentration adapting the HHI Index methodology to evaluate critical supply chains. Findings: despite a lack of a coherent supply chain resilience strategy, empirical data imply the self-emergence of adaptive behaviors within a prototypical industrial cluster. Originality/value: These results could suggest the intrinsic value in terms of supply chain resilience of strong socio-economic networks and addresses new research scenarios.
