Abstract
The form of retailers and manufacturers as the core companies in supply chain are firstly summarized simply. Then, combined with previous researches, the mechanism of the shape of “dual core” enterprise supply chain is proposed. Meanwhile, the fact is pointed out that this form of supply chain is not suitable for all industries and only when manufacturers and retailers expands to a certain size, can such supply chain model emerge. Finally, factors of the shape of such supply chain mode are explained from the information-sharing, a certain firm size, control of the core enterprise and coordination mechanism.
