Review and Prospects of Inventory Pooling in Supply Chain Management

Abstract

Abstract:

In the twenty-first century, supply chain management is an important tool for enterprises to acquire core competence. Centralized inventory management, as one of the important strategies of supply chain management, can reduce the level of inventory and business costs, and improve corporate profits. Now, many scholars have studied it. In this paper, we review the researches of inventory pooling for the first time, reach relevant conclusions and comments on the research methods, content and progress of these researches. We also talk about potential direction of future researches.

Key words: inventory pooling, supply chain management, optimization, summarize, potential direction of the study
