In this paper the relation between (i) the supply chain sustainability aspects, the environmental aspect, the social aspect, economical aspect and (ii) the vendor managed inventory variables, the administration variable, the production variable, the inventory variable, service level variable, and the transportation variable are studied. A comprehensive understanding of how the supply chain sustainability aspects is associated with the vendor managed inventory variables is discussed. Most of the previous studies discussed the supply chain sustainability, the VMI and the relation between the VMI and the SCS in the pharmaceutical industry, but none of the previous studies has linked between the VMI and the SCS in the retailer industry.
