作者：

Highlights：

• An integrated VMI model is presented for a two-level supply chain.

• Both the manufacturer and retailers desire to maximize their benefits.

• A fair profit contract is designed for the manufacturer and the retailers.

• The problem is formulated as a bi-objective non-linear mathematical model.

• The LMM approach is utilized to obtain a fair non-dominated solution.
