Abstract:

In the recent decades, rapid population growth has led to the significant increase in food demand. Food supply chain has always been one of the most important and challenging management issues. Product with short age, especially foodstuffs, is the most problematic challenges for supply chain management. These challenges are mainly due to the diversity in the number of these goods, the special need for tracking the flow of goods in the supply chain and the short age of products. Designing an appropriate supply chain network for the organization will increase profitability as well as customer satisfaction. It also helps organizations to achieve competitive advantage in market. In this research, a multi-objective planning model is presented in order to design a sustainable supply chain network. The first objective function minimizes costs, the second objective function minimizes network environmental impacts, the third objective function optimizes the productivity of facilities and the fourth objective function optimizes network social impacts. In this research, in order to deal with uncertainty, the robust optimization approach is implemented. Multi-criteria decision-making methods are also used to solve the multi-objective model.

A Mixed Integer Linear Programming Model for the Design of Remanufacturing Closed–loop Supply Chain Network

Closed-loop supply chain network design is a critical issue due to its impact on both economic and environmental performances of the supply chain. In this paper, we address the problem of designing a multi-echelon, multi-product and capacitated closed-loop supply chain network. First, a mixed-integer linear programming formulation is developed to maximize the total profit. The main contribution...

A new multi-objective mathematical model for a Citrus supply chain network design: Metaheuristic algorithms

Nowadays, the citrus supply chain has been motivated by both industrial practitioners and researchers due to several real-world applications. This study considers a four-echelon citrus supply chain, consisting of gardeners, distribution centers, citrus storage, and fruit market. A Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming (MINLP) model is formulated, which seeks to minimize the total cost and maximi...

A dynamic bi-objective model for after disaster blood supply chain network design; a robust possibilistic programming approach

Health service management plays a crucial role in human life. Blood related operations are considered as one of the important components of the health services. This paper presents a bi-objective mixed integer linear programming model for dynamic location-allocation of blood facilities that integrates strategic and tactical decisions. Due to the epistemic uncertain nature of ...

A possibilistic bi-objective model for a competitive supply chain network design under variable coverage

In this paper, the strategic planning of a supply chain under a static chain-to-chain competition on the plane is addressed. It is assumed that each retailer has a coverage area called the radius of influence. The demand of each demand zone is divided equally between the retailers which can cover that market. However, the demand of distant customers who are not in the retailers’ radius of influ...
