Perishable products supply chain network design with sustainability

Developing a Multi-Objective Sustainable Supply Chain Network Location-Allocation Model for Perishable Products

“…Some researchers defined Supply chain management (SCM) as the automatic integration of stakeholders starting with demand from customers and passing by needs from suppliers according to the estimation of the enterprise resource planning system Al-Ashhab et al (2021). The term "supply management" may be considered for the management of systems to optimize costs of materials, quality, and service Dai et al (2018).…”

“…Exact methods have been used to solve SSCN design including heuristics plus metaheuristics, LP, NLP, and MILP. Moreover, MINLP models have been also developed (MINLP) Al-Ashhab and Aldosari (2022). GAMS platform could be used for implementing this mathematical formulation Al-Ashhab and Aldosari (2022), GAMS (n.d.).…”

“…Moreover, MINLP models have been also developed (MINLP) Al-Ashhab and Aldosari (2022). GAMS platform could be used for implementing this mathematical formulation Al-Ashhab and Aldosari (2022), GAMS (n.d.). Metaheuristic algorithms are also used based on Pareto solutions Rashidi et al (2016), Zahiri et al (2017), as in the Genetic Algorithm (GA) Dai et al (2018), Rashidi et al (2016), Rohmer et al (2019), Validi et al (2014) Gas, as a population-based technique works effectively for multi-objective optimization problems.…”

“…Therefore, it is very important to pay more attention to the production planning process to ensure a high-profit level and high service level on the other side Al-Ashhab (2016) Other aspects such as environmental or economic impact, have urged academic researchers to consider them due to their importance. Some of them created bi-objective models that took into account both economic and environmental objectives, in which environmental consequences, are designed to reduce CO2 emissions Al-Ashhab et al (2021) as in designed proposed models. The main or first objective Trisna et al (2016) is to minimize total cost in the framework of multi-objective function in the supply chain.…”

Developing a multi-item, multi-product, and multi-period supply chain planning optimization model

“…In (6) , a multi-period multi-echelon forward-reverse logistics network design under risk for only single item products is proposed. In (7) , a mathematical model for a single item, single product, multi-period, multi-echelon supply network considering perishability has been developed. In (8) , only one product has been considered in a formulated MINLP model for a two-echelon vehicle routing problem.…”
