Abstract: Abstract In this paper we consider a low-carbon inventory control policy planned for creative products sold in hybrid channels, where there is vertical and horizontal competition. We set up a tow-echelon base-stock model and under the assumption of demand transfer we analyze competitive stocking decisions with manufacture and retailer using base-stock inventory control policy. By numerical experiments, we analyze the impact of demand uncertainty and competition factor on manufacturer and retailer’s stocking decision variables and the corresponding performance. Finally we conclude the management enlightenments.
