In the increasingly competitive market, supply chain decision-makers are making efforts to improve operational efficiency and reduce costs by joint replenishment approach. Recognizing the value of joint replenishment strategy in the supply chain, we are motivated to write a review on the importance of joint replenishment strategy. Despite the vast literature on the joint replenishment problem (JRP), a comprehensive study survey for recent years is lacking. The goal of this study is to review and synthesize research on JRP from 2006 to 2022. Details of JRP are introduced first. Literature selection and an overview of the extant literature are then discussed. Recent research on JRP with relaxed assumptions is summarized, including stochastic demand, dynamic demand, and resource constraints. In addition, recent research on other JRPs and the joint replenishment and delivery (JRD) problem is summarized. The observations and insights of these studies can guide academics and practitioners to implement joint replenishment strategies in different aspects of supply chain management.
