Abstract Recent developments in food industries have attracted both academic and industrial practitioners. Shrimp as a well-known, rich, sought-after seafood, is generally obtained from either marine environments or aquaculture. Central prominence of Supply Chain (SSC) brought about by numerous factors such high demand, market price, diverse fisheries aquaculture locations. In this respect, pap...

In recent years, sustainability concept has been introduced to many fields including management, technology, and supply chain (SC). The most accepted definition for Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) would be one where all consumer products are created, used, and recycled or disposed of in the Closed loop Method. Closed Loop Supply Chain Management (CLSCM) refers to all forward Logistic...

With the development of the global economy, the emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are getting larger and larger, which brings more and more serious environmental problems to nature that already has great pressure. The traditional enterprise development usually takes the cost minimization and the profit maximization as the enterprise management goal, at the expense of the env...

Supply chain management and closed-loop supply chain management (CLSCM) have developed into established concepts in recent years. The related material cycles and product returns form an important part of all related processes with high potential for reducing environmental burden. The paper proposes a framework for (environmentally triggered) closed-loop supply chain management, spanning three d...

A simple system dynamics model of a traditional/closed loop supply chain system is investigated. Particularly, the effect of remanufacture, remanufacturing lead-time and the return rate on the inventory variance and bullwhip effect were studied. Our results clearly showed that the bullwhip in the closed loop supply chain is bigger than one in traditional supply chain and foreign to the collecti...

In this paper, a closed-loop location-inventory problem for spare parts is presented. The proposed supply chain network includes two echelons, namely (1) distribution centers (DCs) and repairing centers (RCs) and (2) operational bases. Multiple spare parts are distributed among operational bases from distribution centers in the forward supply chain and failed spare parts from operational bases ...
