“…Notably, considering social preferences, especially in a competitive context, leads to increased profit margins for the entire supply chain [12]. Furthermore, the exploration extends to scenarios where the collection process is collaboratively undertaken by both the manufacturer and the retailer, as observed in the study by [39], which specifically delves into decision-making process within a cross-channel recycling context. Consumer consciousness is at the forefront when scrutinizing two distinct strategies: one employing uniform prices for both new and remanufactured products, and the other adopting disparate pricing [40].…”

In today's interconnected world, where supply chains are the backbone of commerce, ensuring their resilience and sustainability is paramount. This study investigates how quantity-based strategies in supply chain networks are influenced by sustainability and resilience considerations. A conceptual framework is devised, focusing on a two-echelon supply chain network comprising a central supplier and multiple stores. A stochastic mathematical model is constructed to tackle demand uncertainty while incorporating parameters related to sustainability and resilience. Competitive negotiations between suppliers and stores aim at maximizing expected profits. Two store configurations are examined: non-cooperative and cooperative. Supplier resilience is reinforced through strategies like security stocks and diversified sourcing, while sustainability efforts are considered by the supplier and stores. Results show that demand following a uniform distribution benefits stores and suppliers, and cooperative behavior among stores leads to higher profitability. Sustainability initiatives impact expected profits, with security stocks particularly advantageous for supplier profitability. The utilization of foreign products has a detrimental effect on expected profits, emphasizing the significance of government regulation via customs fees. The study underscores the importance of integrating sustainability and resilience in supply chain networks. It concludes with reflections on model limitations and proposes avenues for future research in this domain.

“…In order to implement the "Circular Economy Promotion Law" and promote a resourcesaving and environment-friendly society, as early as 2010, the National Development and MSCRA 6,2 Reform Commission of China indicated that remanufacturing is an advanced form of "reuse" in the circular economy. However, researches on remanufacturing usually focus on product recycling channels and strategies (Pal and Sarkar, 2021;Pan and Lin, 2021), product pricing decision and coordination (Lang and Jia, 2021;Li et al, 2021a, b), emission reduction and technologies (Chen et al, 2022;Li et al, 2021a, b;Yilmaz et al, 2021), and so on, but relatively little on the sales of remanufactured products.…”

PurposeThe purpose of this article is based on the unit patent license fee model in the closed-loop supply chain.Design/methodology/approachThis paper analyzes the impact of the bundling strategy of the retailer selling new products and remanufactured products on the closed-loop supply chain under the condition that the original manufacturer produces new products and the remanufacturer produces remanufacturing products.FindingsThe results show that alternative products can be bundled, and in many cases, the bundling of remanufactured products and new products is better than selling alone.Originality/valueIf the retailer chooses bundling, for the remanufacturer, when certain conditions are met, the benefits of bundling are greater than the separate sales at that time; for the original manufacturer, when the recycling price sensitivity coefficient is high, the bundling is better than separate sales.

Strategies to increase sustainability are of growing relevance for supply chains and especially for the management of production processes. In this paper, we build on existing literature in closed-loop supply chain management and consider a two-period game-theoretic model in which product returns are reused in the manufacturing process. In all scenarios, we assume that the return rate of used products is random and not known to the players at the beginning of the planning horizon, thus, they have to deal with uncertainty in period 1. In contrast to existing literature, we will also address the circumstance that the players’ level of information in period 2, after the returns have been realized, can be linked to the collection mode in the supply chain. In Scenario A, the retailer is involved in the collection of the used products and transfers them to the manufacturer, so that symmetric information is available. In Scenario B, on the other hand, the used products reach the manufacturer directly from the customer, so that the manufacturer has an information advantage over the retailer. By comparing these scenarios and a vertically integrated supply chain benchmark case, it becomes clear that, depending on the actual return rate, the presence of private information can be either beneficial or detrimental to the manufacturer. The retailer, on the other hand, can compensate for information disadvantages in most cases over the multi-period planning period due to its position as a Stackelberg leader. Regardless of the amount of a transfer payment offered to it by the manufacturer, it prefers the collection of the goods by the manufacturer itself. These findings contribute to literature on symmetric information, where, for example, a retailer-led collection is preferred (Savaskan et al. Manage Sci 50(2):239–252, 2004) or the decision depends on the amount of the transfer payment (Modak et al. J Clean Prod 171:512–528, 2018). However, we show that cooperation between the players leads to the best results not only economically but also from an ecological point of view.
