“…Abbasi et al [13] considered product perishability and inventory costs in TPLs logistics network design; they revealed the effects of product perishability and disruption of the storing facilities on the TPLs network designing. Tavana et al [14] proposed a game-theoretic approach to examine several possible coalition strategies in a four-echelon supply chain consisting of a supplier, a manufacturer, a wholesaler, and a retailer. Jiang et al [15] studied the decision and coordination mechanism of a competing retail channel with consideration of the participation of a TPL provider.…”

Countries’ economic policies, such as tariff barriers, have a profound impact on the global economy and international trade. The imposition of tariffs seriously disturbs the global trade and supply chain operations. This paper studies a supply chain composed of an overseas manufacturer, a domestic supplier and a third-party integrated international logistics service provider. A three-level decentralized leader-follower decision-making model and its variant--leader-follower alliance decision-making models are established, and the influences of revenue sharing and cost sharing on the three-level decentralized decision-making are analyzed. The results show that it is difficult for the supply chain to achieve coordination when the transportation and insurance costs are considered in the tariff cost. The increase of tariff rates will reduce the profits of all parties and the overall profit of the supply chain, and weaken the dominant position of the supplier in the supply chain. Revenue sharing can improve the supply chain performance; the performance of the whole supply chain cannot be improved or may even deteriorate by sharing the transportation cost alone. The study can provide practitioners with implications for how to carry effective cooperation and coordination in the supply chain and how to effectively reduce the influence of tariffs in the global trade system.

“…Our work is also related to the growing literature on cooperation between firms. Many studies focused on vertical cooperation between supply chain members in forward supply chains (e.g., Cachon & Lariviere, 2005; Liu et al, 2020, 2022; Nematollahi et al, 2017, 2021; Tavana et al, 2020) or reverse/closed‐loop supply chains (e.g., Choi et al, 2013; Hosseini‐Motlagh et al, 2019, 2022; Sarkar & Bhala, 2021; Zheng et al, 2019). We also consider vertical cooperation in the supply chain context, but we focus more on horizontal cooperation between two independent manufacturers facing a dominant retailer.…”

This study investigates the joint trade-in rebate strategies in a supply chain with independent manufacturers selling substitutable products via a dominant retailer. We model their interplay as a Stackelberg game and analyze their joint trade-in rebate decisions. We find that the differentiated trade-in rebate scheme is better for the retailer, and the manufacturers cooperating in making their trade-in rebate decisions can achieve win-win results in most cases. However, replacement consumers could benefit from the retailer's uniform trade-in rebate scheme and the manufacturers not cooperating in their trade-in decisions. The latter is always more beneficial to the environment. | INTRODUCTIONTrade-in programs are extensively used in durable product markets, such as household electrical appliances, automobiles, electronics, and technology industries (Agrawal et al., 2016;Ray et al., 2005). In a trade-in program, trade-in rebates are commonly regarded as a special discount firms offer to the replacement consumers for a new product.Consequently, trade-in programs can serve as essential strategic leverage to boost sales of new products (Xiao, 2017). For instance, in highly saturated markets such as refrigerators or electric heaters, the percentage of replacement purchases in the United States equals 70%-80% of annual sales (Ray et al., 2005). Similarly, approximately 57% of all new car sales are through trade-ins in the automobile industry (Zhu et al., 2008). It has been revealed that trade-ins play a crucial role in increasing the purchasing frequency (Desai et al., 2016), helping firms to remain competitive (Li & Xu, 2015), and reducing the environmental impact (Vedantam et al., 2021).

“…One dimension of environmental thinking is reducing greenhouse gases (GHGs) emission, which has different consequences such as Ozone depletion and long-term global climate change. Though RL is a green practice, the transport of vehicles between RL stages causes environmental pollution that should be considered (Taghikhah et al , 2019; Tavana et al , 2020).…”

PurposeEnvironmental awareness is increasing among people in developing countries. In this regard, companies should consider ecological goals in addition to financial goals. Since the food industry is recognised as one of the largest emitters of CO2, profit and ecological objectives are optimised in radio-frequency identification (RFID) based closed-loop supply chain in the food industry in this paper.Design/methodology/approachBased on the literature, companies with a green entrepreneurial orientation (GEO) can turn ecological problems into opportunities using their proactiveness. In this regard, a new mixed-integer non-linear mathematical model is presented for optimising a new multi-product RFID-based closed-loop supply chain with a GEO in the food industry. The case study in this paper is Ofogh-e Kourosh company which is located in Iran. The GAMS software is used to code this model.FindingsThe optimum number of new products and materials flow was found among the closed-loop supply chain entities. Some factors as price, quality and warranty of products were considered, and the number of reopening of facilities if needed was set. The optimum node for RFID installation was found.Originality/valueThe paper presents a multi-objective mathematical model for optimising a multi-product RFID-based closed-loop supply chain with a GEO in the food industry. In addition, this paper gives insights into how can model this type of supply chain considering ecological and financial attributes.
