Abstract
Supply chain management (SCM) is concerned with a complex business relations network that contains interrelationships between various entities, such as suppliers, manufacturers, distribution centers and customers. SCM integrates these entities and manages their interrelationships through the use of information technology to meet customer expectation effectively along the entire value chain. Thus, one of the vital issues in supply chain management is the design of the value chain network.In this paper, a multi objective fuzzy mathematical programming model is developed to optimize the supply chain networking under inherent uncertainty of input data. The proposed model is able to optimize the environmental impacts beside the traditional cost minimization objective to make a fair balance between them. The model determines the fuzzy capacities of the facilities and the design of the network con#xFB01;guration with a minimum total cost. A real case is used to demonstrate the significance and applicability of the developed fuzzy optimization model as well as the usefulness of the proposed solution approach. The developed model is solved by a professional software package (LINDO), and the computational results are discussed.
