Abstract:

Manufacturers cooperate with merchants who are stationed on e-commerce platforms to promote green products through the pre-sale mode. Given that, a supply chain decision-making model considering the fairness concerns of the retailer under the pre-sale model is constructed based on Stackelberg Game, which considers that the dominant manufacturers and a retailer makes regular-sale promotional efforts, then the impact of green product pre-sale scales and the fairness concerns on the decision-making of supply chain members are analyzed. According to the model, the cost-sharing contract is established to relieve the uneven distribution of profits. It is found that: the improvement of consumers’ green sensitivity could urge the green upgrading of the supply chain, but lead to the reduction of promotion efforts. Increasing the scale of pre-sale could not continuously make up the profit gap. When a retailer has fairness concerns, it is not conducive for green products to upgrade, but the cost-sharing contract could weaken the negative effect of fairness concern behavior. In addition, the effects of adopting cost-sharing contract are more significant when the scale of pre-sale is large, and it could improve retailer' more profits than manufacturers. A larger cost-sharing coefficient would aggravate the negative effects of fairness concerns on the overall profits of the supply chain.

Key words: Pre-sale model, fairness concerns, cost-sharing contract, green products supply chain
