Abstract
Game theory is applied widely to solving various problems to get optimal decisions. This paper analyzes the Stackelberg behaviors between a manufacturer and two retailers. As the market demand used to be uncertain, in order to describe the market demand fitting to real situations, this paper applys fuzzy variable in the two-echelon supply chain problem. Then, a numerical example is used to illustrate the result in comparison between fuzzy variable and crisp number. Fuzzy variable and crisp number are compared with mean absolute percentage difference rate of fuzzy demand (MAPDR-FD).
