The freshness of perishable products, in addition to other economic aspects such as production, inventory, and transportation management, is one the main challenges food supply chains. Therefore, integration routing decisions essential. In this study, a new production model for products with uncertain demand presented. aim minimize costs routing, wasted penalties non-fresh products. more applic...

Markets increasing competition coupled with a growing concern with the environment have created a new way of thinking when designing and planning supply chains. The aim of increasing supply chains’ sustainability has been emerging. One step towards the achievement of such aim is the integration of reverse logistics into the traditional supply chains. This has created the closed-loop supply chai...

The present article considers the functioning of food supply chains and their major component — a continuous cold chain perishable products, including meat under conditions COVID‑19 pandemic. issues impact pandemic on production, processing commercial products in Russia worldwide are being considered. traceability temperature fluctuations plants is relevant; it becomes an increasingly important...

Reverse logistics, which is induced by various forms of used products and materials, has received growing attention throughout this decade. In a highly competitive environment, the service level is an important criterion for reverse logistics network design. However, most previous studies about product returns only focused on the total cost of the reverse logistics and neglected the service lev...

My dissertation addresses a number of challenges in perishable inventory management in supply chains, providing both theoretical results and managerial insights. Essay 1: In this essay, we review the literature on supply chain management of perishable products that have a fixed or random lifetime, primarily focusing on challenges introduced by aging of such products. We start with a review of t...

The increasing growth trend of the global Muslim population implies an increase in consumption halal products. importance market attracts much attention from many stakeholders, including academia/researchers. Many scholars have conducted studies on topics. However, these cover broad topics, such as ICT potential sector, supply chain, Islamic Law, and other related to natural sciences. This stud...

mathematical modeling of supply chain operations has proven to be one of the most complex tasks in the field of operations management and operations research. despite the abundance of several modeling proposals in the literature; for vast majority of them, no effective universal application is conceived. this issue renders the proposed mathematical models inapplicable due largely to the fact th...

This paper considers the reliable multi-product multi-vehicle multi-type link logistics network design problem (RMLNDP) with system disruptions, which is concerned with facilities locating, transshipment links constructing, and also allocating them to the customers in order to satisfy their demand on minimum expected total cost (including locating costs, link constructing costs, and also expect...

This study analyses a production-management model that considers the possibility of implementing a reverse-logistics system for remanufacturing end-of-life products in a lean production environment (as opposed to models that use EOQ approaches). Decision variables are identified (including manufacturing and remanufacturing capacities and return rates and use rates for end-oflife products) and o...

Transportation of goods constitutes an important part of in–bound as well as out-bound logistics of Supply Chain Management (SCM). Efficient distribution of goods and services is of vital importance in today’s competitive market, as transportation constitutes a considerable portion of the trading price of most products or services. Supply Chain Management (SCM) is now at the centre stage of man...
