Enhancing supply chain resilience through government subsidies and blockchain adoption: Ensuring sustainability and preventing disruptions

Abstract As environmental protection becomes increasingly important, so does the significance of incorporating the recycling manufacturing model into the supply chain. Meanwhile, addressing supply chain disruption is imperative in the supply chain. To understand the relationship between remanufacturing and supply chain disruption, we studied the effect of supply chain disruption, remanufacturing, blockchain technology, and government subsidies on preventing supply chain disruption in the second period. There have two models in the following discussion. In the local market, a manufacturer M manufactures and recycles products for remanufacture in the second stage. At the same time, retailer R is responsible for the sales of products. We also add government subsidies and blockchain technology, discussing those roles in preventing supply chain disruptions in the second period. Blockchain technology and government subsidies are equally crucial in averting disruptions during the second period, although they may only provide partial protection against supply chain disruption.
