Knowledge sharing activity has been considered as the key activity in knowledge management. This study aims at exploring and conceptualizing knowledge sharing process and behaviors of the members of Warung Tegal (Warteg) business supply chain network. The study specifically examines the role of Warteg in the knowledge sharing process. Using informal interviews to five selected Warteg owners, value chain, supply chain network, and knowledge sharing process are explored. Knowledge sharing behavior among the actors in the network is then analyzed.
