TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed how supermarkets can reduce food waste by implementing appropriate marketing strategies underpinned by digital technologies, such as Big Data predictive analytics, in order to improve the sustainability of supermarket chains in emerging economies.

TL;DR: The results show that the model can effectively address evaluation problems of circular economy activities involving a large group of experts and a consensus reaching model is proposed to reduce the discrepancies among experts.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors map the relatively novel but growing circular economy and food literature territory by systematically reviewing the studies and identify the strategic actions for managers and policymakers to transition from the traditional to a CE-based food sector.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated ten different BDA drivers in the context of food supply chains for transition to a circular economy (CE) and sustainable operations management (SOM) and concluded that Governmental Incentive is the most fundamental driver to achieve BDA applications in FSC transition from linearity to CE and SOM, which will help in drawing up regulations to prevent food fraud, implementing laws concerning government incentives, reducing food loss and waste, increasing tracing and traceability, providing training activities to improve knowledge about BDA and focusing more on data analytics.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the link between firm resources and sustained competitive advantage and analyzed the potential of several firm resources for generating sustained competitive advantages, including value, rareness, imitability, and substitutability.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the process of inducting theory using case studies from specifying the research questions to reaching closure, which is a process similar to hypothesis-testing research.

TL;DR: In this article, a firm is considered to have a sustained competitive advantage when it is implementing a value creating strategy that no competitor is implementing and when these competitors are unable to duplicate the benefits of this strategy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define a leadership event as a perceived segment of action whose meaning is created by the interactions of actors involved in producing it, and present a set of innovative methods for capturing and analyzing these contextually driven processes.
