Abstract: This research proposes the development of a green IPD planning under 'non-competitive' and 'competitive' market conditions, aiming at minimising costs, maximising service level, and minimising carbon emissions. For the 'competitive market' model, a green competition and a Stackelberg competition between brand-differentiated manufacturers are considered. A real case study is investigated to evaluate the application of these models. The numerical results express that competition enhances both financial and environmental performance of supply chains and ameliorates supply of products to retailers. Moreover, this study supports informed decision-making by supply chain authorities to improve inventory control and replenishment to address customer demand sensitivity.
