Abstract

This study, presents three different mathematical models: Producer, Distributor and Coordination modelwhich negotiate with a Producer-Distributor system for producing and distributing ofagricultural products in Bangladesh. In this paper, we investigated supply chain network (SCN) are two distinct freelance supply organizations. SCN management has the difficulties for the disconnected and freelance economic people. Further, fast technological changes and high fight build SCN a lot of complicated. The problem of locating distribution centers (DCs) is one among the foremost necessary problems in design of SCN. Current study, SCN was modeled using a formulation in mixed integer linear programming (MILP) problem, in which the facilities are coordinated by mutually sharing information with each other between producer and wholesaler. We think, this research presents a real life coordination optimization problem. The formulated MILP model is solved by using a mathematical programming language (AMPL) and results obtained by appropriate solver MINOS.
