Abstract
With the development of the global online shopping trend, logistics providers are often commissioned for last-mile delivery. The asset logistics operators support their delivery service with parcel lockers, while the non-asset operators perform door-to-door delivery. However, the demand fluctuation causes asset operators’ parcel locker slot vacancies, while non-asset operators suffer from high-cost door-to-door service. This study proposes a parcel locker sharing model in which two parties share the parcel locker capacity in last-mile delivery to increase the profit of both parties and the total supply chain. A numerical analysis is conducted to validate the mathematical analysis.
