“…This model can also be developed by considering deteriorating items under the tread-credit policy (see, e.g., Sarkar et al [55]). Instead of a two-echelon supply chain, the model could extended by considering a multi-echelon supply chain (Sarkar et al [56]). It could also be developed by considering product greenness (Liu et al [57]).…”

The present study focuses on a single-vendor, single-buyer supply chain model for a single type of product with upgraded service provided to the buyer by the vendor. Vendors often increase their profit by providing a lower quality of a particular product. In this study, an advanced supply chain model is developed to increase service in the presence of an unreliable vendor and an online-to-offline (O2O) channeling system. The vendor provides lower quality items to the customer, even though they had committed to providing a certain quality product, in order to increase their profit. For more realistic results, demand is considered to be price-, quality-, and service-dependent. To advertise and sell the products, the manufacturer uses an online system, which the buyer also uses to choose and order the product, where the particular product is delivered to the customer by a third (offline) party; that is, the concept of an O2O retail channel is adopted to improve the service level of the supply chain management (SCM). To control the out-of-control state and improve the production quality, investment is used. Contrary to the literature, service is considered to be constrained, which makes the model more realistic. A classical optimization technique is used to solve the model analytically and a two-echelon supply chain model is obtained under the advanced O2O retail channel, along with optimized profit, shipment volume, selling price, ordering cost, service, back-ordered price discount, lead time, and safety factor values. Some numerical examples and a sensitivity analysis of the key parameters are provided, along with graphical representation, in order to validate the model.

“…Given environmental benefits, reduction in carbon emission is one of the main objectives for any sustainable supply chain system (Ahmed and Sarkar [27], Shaharudin et al [28], and Mishra et al [29]). A symmetric review for green product production was presented by Appolloni et al [30]. Because of social responsibilities, different firms upgrade the relationship between social stainability and financial performance (Sroufe et al [11]).…”

Every industry always tries to provide the best service to its consumers. To provide better service to the consumer and optimize profit, a sustainable online-to-offline retailing strategy is proposed in this current study. Both online and offline systems are considered here, i.e., to provide the best service, the industry sells its products online and offline. Due to the consideration of online and offline systems, the selling price of the products is also different for different modes, and the demand for a particular product is the combined demand of online demand and offline demand, which depend on the selling price of the product. Moreover, the exact lead time and exact backorder are calculated to obtain the system’s exact cost or profit, which directly improves the system’s service. Different investments are incorporated to optimize the total system profit. A distribution-free approach is utilized to solve this model. Numerical examples are provided to prove the applicability of the model in reality. Sensitivity analysis is performed based on critical parameters. Special cases and graphical representations also prove the global optimality of the current study.

“…Customers observe to pay much more for goods have with low-carbon emission technology in some cases. Moreover, Sarkar et al [7] model developed a model that reduces waste and controls pollution to save the environment easily. To the best of the authors' knowledge, no reverse fuzzy logistics model has been developed considering two warehouses.…”

Running the business smoothly for protecting the environment is a significant challenge, on which industries are trying something to do at their level best. Reverse logistics play an important role in system design by reducing environmental consequences and increasing economic and social impacts. Given the recent fluctuations of the market, the production cost and ordering cost are considered triangular fuzzy numbers in this study. Customers' demand is met at the right time, and there is no shortage of items; thus, attention can be paid to two warehouses of a retailer. The setup costs and deterioration costs of this system are affected by the learning effects, which lead to a decrease in the total cost. Inflation is a significant problem in the market because manufacturing, remanufacturing, and retailers are all affected. This study proposes a reverse logistics system model so that customers can resolve their complaints about defective items and carbon emissions under two warehouses. Numerical results show that the fuzzy model is more economically beneficial than the crisp model, finds that the crisp and fuzzy model saw a difference of 0.34% in total cost. Two numerical examples illustrate this study, and a sensitivity analysis is performed using tables and graphs.
