A Mixed-Integer Linear Programming Model For Optimizing Supply Chain Network: A Case Study Of Imarket Korea

Abstract

With the growth of the present procurement service market, iMarketVietnam has become one of the most well-known providers of this service to major corporations such as SAMSUNG, TAEKWANG, SAMHO, and ORION... Noticing iMarketVietnam - Hochiminh City Branch wishes to extend its perishable product offerings, this research is conducted. To address their problem and improve the quality of iMarketKorea's supply chain, we will give a mixed-integer linear programming model with the primary goal of save the overall cost as much as possible of the whole networking system. The model decides the number of necessary warehouses, as well as their locations, as well as the inventory level at each shop, as well as the routes taken by each vehicle.
