A proportionately increased small and equal batch delivery under consignment stock agreement for a single vendor, multiple buyers supply chain system by Kehinde Adegbola, Abdulrakib Abdulrahman

“…Also, small batch delivery is an effective strategy for launching a product since it enables a business to assess the market and validate the product before committing to a large production run. In this paper, we combined small batch delivery and consignment stock policy by considering a supply chain setting where a vendor fulfilled the shipment requirement of each buyer sequentially in a single production set up. …”
