“…A critical issue in the dual-channel supply chain is the channel structure strategy, which has attracted considerable attention in academia and practice. Most of the existing studies investigate the pricing, service issues under the dual-channel structure of manufacturers' online direct selling mode, and limited research has been carried out regarding the online channel structure strategy [22][23][24][25][26]. For instance, Yang et al [27] examined impacts of environmental responsibility and green level on dual-channel structure and found that there exists an interaction between dual-channel structure choice and green level decision.…”

This paper investigates a dual-channel supply chain consisting of a manufacturer and a retailer, where the retailer exhibits vertical and horizontal fairness concerns. The manufacturer or the retailer direct selling and e-commerce platform agency selling modes are employed to characterize the impact of retailer’s fairness concerns on the online channel mode strategy. Results show that the retailer’s fairness concerns only affect the wholesale price and online channel mode strategy. Without the retailer’s fairness concerns, the manufacturer direct selling mode is the best strategy for the manufacturer, which harms the retailer’s utility. With the retailer’s fairness concerns, the manufacturer may choose the manufacturer direct selling or e-commerce platform agency selling mode. When the fairness concern parameters meet a certain range, the e-commerce platform agency selling mode strategy is better for the supply chain members, which can solve the interest conflict between supply chain members. These research findings help dual-channel supply chain members understand how to choose the channel structure strategy to balance the supply chain members’ interests by considering fairness concerns.

“…Government fund policies are often better for retailers to remanufacturing. Right fund policy parameters tend to bring more benefits for all parts of closed-loop supply chain [23]. However, government still need to improve the resource efficiency of remanufacturing which has responsibility to promote remanufacturing production by policies and legislations [24].…”

Remanufacturing is one of the most effective forms of the recycling economy, and the “Trade-in for Remanufacturing” (TIFR) program in China plays an important role in the development of remanufacturing. To understand this new business model of remanufacturing, the price and demand relationship of the NP and RP are examined in two periods, considering TIFR subsidy which is in practice in China. Comparing integrated optimization scheme and tiered optimization scheme, this paper then researches the pricing strategy with TIFR subsidy respectively, as multi-object optimization is employed in the latter scheme. Tiered optimization pricing is found to improve the old customer’s TIFR enthusiasm, balance the remanufacturing system and work better with TIFR subsidy through numerical experiments. This paper studies the impacts of subsidy rate, receptiveness to RP, and the mixture of them, then verifies the proposed model and gives an inspiration to the management of the new remanufacturing business model about TIFR subsidy.

This paper investigates the optimal showroom service strategy and power structure for online and offline retailers considering online consumer return. Combining two service strategies and three competition power structures, six models are constructed to analyze the effects of the showrooming effect and consumer return on retailers’ decisions and consumer surplus. The results show that the SS strategy is the best choice for offline retailers, and it is also an effective way to solve consumer return. Online retailers are suggested to cooperate with offline retailers to implement SS strategy and enhance the showrooming effect. Under the SS strategy, the offline-led power structure is the best choice for online retailers, but the online-led power structure is optimal for offline retailers. We also find that the supply chain and consumers are more likely to implement SS strategy and offline-led power structure. More importantly, we pinpoint that there is no incentive for retailers to implement the Nash power structure. Therefore, it is recommended to revitalize the real economy of offline retailers and implement the strategy SS effectively.
