Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nowadays, supply chain management moves towards sustainable development. It contributes to sustainable living along with economic development. The benefits of all these transformations and development are dedicated to environmental improvement. The green inventories are one of the things which can boost up development from the ground level. The difference between the green inventory and non-green inventory is that the green inventory is eco-friendlier and healthy for human health. Thus, the promotion of green inventory and its use is taken care of by manufacturers and retailers. The fact is that dealing with green and non-green traditional products are not the same. This special issue aims to emphasize the use of green inventory within the supply chain management system along with mathematical modeling such that environmental degradation will be less.
