Abstract
In this study, we (attempted to) demonstrate the benefit of information sharing on supply chain performance in a three echelon supply chain that consists of one distribution center and two store retailers. To perform the analysis, the discrete event simulation model for inventory replenishment process was developed based on the actual data obtained from the retailer. Variousreplenishment information sharing mechanisms were analyzed for promotional and nonpromotionalmerchandises in each store. In addition, we also analyzed the benefit of interstore information sharing and interstore transshipment on supply chain performance. The impacts of information sharing mechanisms on retail supply chain performance were investigated to find themechanisms that led to the longrun average total cost minimization.
