Comparative analysis of reverse e-logistics’ solution in Asia and Europe

Purpose – to make comparative analysis of the most successful reverse e-logistics’ solution in Asia and Europe to identify models and methods for solving efficiency and sustainability issues in these areas.

Research methodology – the research methodology implemented is composed of literature review, synthesis, and comparative analysis.

Findings – certain solutions implemented such as omni-channels, and Multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) in Asia, and selecting the best third-party reverse logistics providers (3PRLPs), and green suppliers in Europe were able to increase the efficiency of reverse e-logistics’ performance.

Research limitations – the lack of enough researches done in the field of RL in the Middle East created obstacles in double checking the work presented in this paper because more resources are needed to confirm significantly the results. As for future recommendations, further researches should be conducted in the Middle East.

Practical implications – the results found can be implemented in those firms who are still suffering inefficiencies and high costs in their reverse e-logistics’ activities.

Originality/Value – this research made a comparison study between solutions implemented in Europe and Asia in head-to-head comparison in such a way it gave an originalitity of these values since no previous researches and studies were conducted in that comparative way before.
