Course Description:
E-commerce retail has shown a consistent double-digit growth over the last years. It is generally recognized that the timely delivery of parcels to consumers is pivotal to customer satisfaction. COVID-19 has illustrated the impact of demand and supply uncertainty. In addition, the EU wants to be climate neutral by 2050. These factors provide enormous challenges to e-commerce.
In this course, we address key themes in managing e-commerce supply chains. These include consumer delivery preferences, distribution network design, inventory management, and sustainability considerations.
Students will analyze (stylized) cases and experience industry exposure via possible guest lectures.
