Abstract

Production and distribution planning might come as one integrated system or separately managed. The distribution planning may include the storage and handling of products, transportation and delivery of products, and so on. Some industries may have inventory/distribution network which are very complex, due to its distribution network and may also be subjected to specific routing restriction. The restriction may affect the optimization of the performance of the distribution network. The aim of this paper is to present a conceptual model which minimizes the total distribution cost for a multi production plant, multi distribution center and multi retailers under seasonal demand and multi time period. The supply chain under consideration comprises of multi role nodes as the production plant and/or distribution center.
