A Multiproduct Multi-vehicle Inventory Routing Problem with Uncertainty

As a result of the increase in environmental problems, green logistics has become an important subject in the supply chain literature. In this study, a multiproduct multi-vehicle inventory routing problem is modeled by considering the cost stemming from fuel consumption as an environmental objective. Demand and inventory holding costs are taken into account as uncertain parameters. A sample average approximation algorithm is used to solve the problem. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated in terms of optimality gap and computational time by using a data set from the literature. The computational experiments give promising results for further research.
