“…In 2021, global pork production is expected to increase by 2% from 2020, reaching 103.8 million tons. China is the largest pork production country, accounting for 40% of global production; it also consumes the most pork [19].…”

This study explored the effects of purchase preference, perceived value, and marketing mix on consumers’ purchase intention and willingness to pay for pork in Taiwan. A questionnaire was distributed to pork consumers in an online platform, and a total of 1042 valid samples were collected. An analysis of the questionnaire responses revealed three purchase preference factors, namely flavour, certification marks, and added features; four perceived value factors, namely functional, social, conditional, and emotional value; and four marketing mix factors, namely promotion, convenience, product, and price marketing. Functional value, purchase frequency, conditional value, and product marketing positively affected purchase intention. Promotional marketing, monthly disposable income, and social value were the main positive factors in increased willingness to pay. Consumers who were men, had a lower educational level, purchased large quantities of pork at one time, or frequently purchased pork exhibited higher purchase intention than did other consumers. Those who were men, had higher educational attainment, had a higher monthly disposable income, or held a management position were more willing to purchase pork at a premium price.

“…Furthermore, a lack of stakeholder engagement presents a crucial threat to efforts in this regard. Another challenge is the communication of outcomes to decision‐makers (Zira et al, 2021). Thus, future LCSA procedures must be explained and communicated to ensure that stakeholders adequately comprehend assumptions, methods, and their implications for outcomes.…”

“…Thus, future LCSA procedures must be explained and communicated to ensure that stakeholders adequately comprehend assumptions, methods, and their implications for outcomes. Identifying appropriate indicators is a demanding duty, and indicator choice and scaling massively impact evaluation results (Zira et al, 2021). From the CSC viewpoint, in future studies, more value metrics must be acknowledged in measuring the actual advantages and risks that result from the final expanded LCSA solution (Liu et al, 2020).…”

Building a data‐driven circular supply chain hierarchical structure: Resource recovery implementation drives circular business strategy

et al. 2022

The circular supply chain has recently received more attention as a relevant solution to effectively tackle environmental issues while simultaneously achieving resource recovery and circular business strategy benefits. This study builds a hierarchical circular supply chain structure from big data including qualitative and quantitative information. This study uses data-driven analysis to clarify circular supply chain trends and opportunities in practice. A valid hierarchical circular supply chain structure is composed of a big dataset. However, the attributes of the hierarchical circular supply chain structure must be explored to identify the opportunities and challenges of the circular supply chain. A combination of data-driven content and cluster analysis, including the fuzzy Delphi method, fuzzy decision-making trials, evaluation laboratories, and the entropy weight method, is utilized to address this gap. The study analyzes a set of five attributes from the literature, and 23 criteria are validated. The results show that resource recovery implementation, Industry 4.0 and digitalization, and reverse supply chain practice pertain to the causal group, while circular business strategy and life cycle sustainability assessment are included in the effect group. The conclusive criteria comprise material efficiency, waste-to-energy, machine learning, e-waste, plastic recycling, and artificial intelligence. K E Y W O R D S circular business strategy, circular supply chain, data-driven analysis, Industry 4.0 and digitalization, resource recovery, reverse supply chain 1 | INTRODUCTION Resource paucity, biodiversity inadequacy, climate change, and other forms of environmental adversity underscore the need for firms to use fewer resources and identify cleaner production techniques. In this context, attention to the circular supply chain (CSC) concept is intensifying (Rweyendela & Kombe, 2021). The CSC concept offers sustainable advantages by separating value formation from resource usage, leading to lower resource consumption and higher economic value acquisition from waste flows (Bressanelli et al., 2021;Tseng, Tran, et al., 2021). Numerous studies have employed CSC principles to enhance resource efficiency by expanding the lifetime usage of a resource via a resource recovery procedure and improving the number of resources consumed along with the waste created (Krishnan et al., 2020;Munir et al., 2021). However, CSC initiation still involves an array of difficulties and complexities such as the diversification of the performance metrics of various opportunities and challenges in Abbreviations: CSC, circular supply chain; FDM, fuzzy Delphi method; FDEMATEL, fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory; EWM, entropy weight method.

“…Firstly, explore the construction of a green and sustainable pork supply chain. Improve animal welfare, and pursue organic while considering the balance between environmental, economic, and social sustainability (Maples et al 2019;Zira et al 2021). Secondly, build a pattern of social pluralism and co-governance.…”

Using the method of static game analysis, the potential risk and responsibility across the entire pork supply chain are discussed from the perspective of all stakeholders involved. Included in the analysis are pig suppliers, slaughterers, pork processors, pork sellers and consumers. The results indicate the following: firstly, the lower the probability of inspections on downstream businesses and the higher the single inspection fee, the greater the probability of harmful substances used by upstream businesses and the higher the costs. Secondly, businesses that actively manufacture and transfer harmful substances in the supply chain cannot add extra costs. Finally, the quality and risk factors in pork production may not follow a strictly linear growth. This study might explain the unique problems that occur in pork supply chain management in large developing countries such as China.
