An integrated supply chain network design problem for bidirectional flows

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose an integrated facility location and product distribution–collection model for bidirectional flows.

• We develop an efficient Lagrangian relaxation-based heuristic to address the proposed model.

• We apply the heuristic in an industrial case study.

• Several interesting managerial insights are reported from numerous computational experiments.
