“…Lai et al , 2015; Mudambi and Aggarwal, 2003; Shipley et al , 1989) have had a strong GDL and have focused on the traditional roles of a distributor, whereas the results of this study emphasize that the distributor should be also considered as an actor adding value for the customer. This aspect has also been acknowledged by some previous authors (Hakanen et al , 2017; Olsson et al , 2013; Sheresheva and Kolesnik, 2011). It is also important to notice that the topic of the study has two perspectives: a global perspective, which makes developing relationships more difficult for the companies in the distribution chain and the servitization perspective, which makes the global distribution even more complex.…”

“…Servitization development has implications for manufacturer’s global B2B distribution. Sheresheva and Kolesnik (2011) proposed that a distributor should be considered not only as a reseller, but also as an actor adding value for the customer. Gadde (2014) in his turn reported that manufacturers have increasingly required customized offerings from their distributors, implying that distribution solutions are tailored to industrial customer requirements.…”

Purpose The ability to operate global distribution channels of products is commonly considered a critical determinant of a manufacturer’s competitiveness. Nowadays, many products are often complemented with value-added services challenging the efficacy of the status quo of distribution channels. Investigating this rather new phenomenon, the purpose of this paper is to provide an initial understanding of the implications of servitization for manufacturers’ global business-to-business (B2B) distribution. Design/methodology/approach The aim is to elaborate service-dominant logic (SDL) in the context of global B2B distribution. The study builds on case study data collected from a medium-sized European manufacturing company offering production equipment and solutions, and three of its global distributors. Findings The results indicate that the co-producing customer value, the increasing role of operant resources of both a distributor and a manufacturer, and triadic co-creation between a manufacturer, a distributor and an end customer have increasing importance in the indirect distribution network. Research limitations/implications Data are limited to data collected from a single in-depth case study. The results of this study should be investigated by collecting more data in a broader context in the form of surveys. Practical implications Several guidelines related to global distribution are developed for managers, and current distributor selection criteria are completed to meet the needs of this servitization approach. Originality/value Empirical research on servitizing manufacturers with global B2B distribution is scarce. This paper employs SDL to provide an in-depth understanding of the implications of servitization for distribution.

The increasing accumulation of rock waste obtained due to ore processing and its environmental impacts, such as acid mine drainage and elevated concentrations of heavy metals in soils, necessitates the transformation of mining technologies based on the concept of circular waste management. The research is aimed at improving the parameters of the mechanical activation effect produced on technogenic georesources, as well as at expanding the application scope of disintegrators in the field of using the partial backfill of the mined-out space when developing stratified deposits. In this regard, the research purpose was to substantiate the parameters of extracting metals from enrichment tailings using their mechanochemical activation to ensure cyclic waste management. The research involved the application of three-dimensional interpolation methods used for processing the data and the graphical representation. As a result, the following was found to be characteristic of the waste of the Sadonsky mine management. The degree of extracting zinc from pre-activated tailings increases logarithmically when the H2SO4 concentration and the NaCl proportion decrease 3.5 times. The degree of extracting lead from the activated tailings increases according to the Fourier law when decreasing the NaCl mass concentration, and an optimal range of the H2SO4 (0.38–0.51%) proportion decreases six times. One of the key results of the research is the justification of expanding the scope of applying disintegrators in the case of a directed activation influence exerted on the components of the stowing strips. The obtained results expand the understanding of the mechanism of the influence of the mechanochemical activation of dry tailings on the reactivity unevenness when extracting several metals from them.

“…While qualitative studies on business networks and relationships in Russia have predominantly been conducted by Western-based researchers, all of the five quantitative studies found in the target journals came from Russian-based researchers (e.g. Bek M., Bek N., Sheresheva, & Johnston, 2013;Radaev, 2013;Smirnova, Naudé, Henneberg, Mouzas, & Kouchtch, 2011;Sheresheva & Kolesnik, 2011;Smirnova, Henneberg, Ashnai, Naudé, & Mouzas, 2011). Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a preference for quantitative type studies among Russian-based researchers, while conducting a qualitative study is still predominantly a Western tradition.…”

“…However, most of the research in CEE markets has been conducted in a quantitative manner (e.g. Martin & Grbac, 2003;Miocevic & Crnjak-Karanovic, 2012;Radaev, 2013;Sheresheva & Kolesnik, 2011) Semi-structured face-to-face interviews with individual managers form the main tool for data collection in qualitative studies, and are widely used in Western business network research. As managers are the principal subjects of an interview situation, the contextual conditions should be considered when planning research on business networks and relationships.…”

Collecting rich qualitative data in business-to-business market context, where respondents are more reluctant towards investing time in academic research, may impose several barriers for researchers. In particular, challenges may emerge in collecting data and establishing its trustworthiness in Central Eastern European (CEE) countries, due to a distinct business context that has developed over several historical instances.The aim of this paper is to investigate and understand the methodological challenges of collecting rich qualitative data on business relationships and networking in CEE countries. The countries in focus are Russia, Croatia and Hungary. In order to achieve our aims, we critically reflect on personal experiences and consult the literature on conducting research in the aforementioned countries. The contribution of the paper lies in implications for methodological specifics and plausible solutions to overcome barriers to conducting qualitative research on business relationships and networks in CEE countries.
