Abstract: The development of the military conflict associated with the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation is a common factor influencing the emergence of threats and corresponding risks of deterioration in the supply chain and production processes of food industry enterprises. This impact has consequences that can be classified by type of hazard according to the main areas of management related to the supply chain and production processes of enterprises. Such an impact has specific characteristics for enterprises in different industries, and its identification in relation to food industry entities will ensure the development of scientific and practical research in this area. The identification of such characteristics is associated with the use of appropriate methodological support, which can be universal in nature and applied to the analysis of both the conditions in Ukraine and countries with a similar environment in conditions of military conflict.
The aim of the study is to systematise and substantiate scientific approaches to assessing the impact of military conflicts on the supply chain and production processes of food industry enterprises. To achieve this goal, the following tasks have been set: to formulate methodological support for assessing the impact of military conflicts on the supply chain and production processes of food industry enterprises; to identify the characteristics of this impact using the example of leading food industry enterprises in Ukraine during the Russian Federation's war against Ukraine.
Research methods: systematisation method; factor method; scoring; statistical method.
The use of the author's methodological support made it possible to establish the characteristics of the impact of the military conflict on the supply chain and production processes of food industry enterprises in Ukraine. It was determined that the leading companies in the food industry market of Ukraine demonstrated a high level of security in key areas during the military conflict. At the same time, the need to update the technologies and equipment used in the supply chain (including within production processes) was noted.
The practical value of this study lies in the development of characteristics of the impact of military conflicts on the supply chain and production processes of food industry enterprises.

Keywords: Assessment of the impact of military conflict, efficiency, supply chain, food industry enterprises, production processes, continuity of production, product sales.
