The Supply Chain Network Design (SCND) with perishability is an active research topic. The Agri-fresh Food Supply Chain (AFSC) is a relevant topic to SCND and this study aims to model a new AFSC for a real-world case study. Regarding the traditional AFSC, the geographically dispersed small farmers transport their product individually to market for selling. This leads to a higher transportation cost, which is the major cause of farmers’ low profitability. This paper formulates a traditional product movement model to represent the existing AFSC. The concept of sharing economic approach is employed by the aggregate and collaborative transportation of products to minimize transportation inefficiency. This paper proposes an aggregate product movement with the vehicle routing model to re-design an AFSC for a case study in Iran based on the data of ETKA Company-the largest domestic agri-fresh food supply chain. A four-echelon, multi-period, Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming (MINLP) approach for the proposed location-inventory-routing model is formulated for perishable products via considering the clustering of farmers to minimize the total distribution cost.

In recent years, the supply chain network design (SCND) problems that integrate financial issues have attracted the attention of managers and researchers. In this paper, in order to address an SCND problem, a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) model developed that considers operational and financial decisions simultaneously for designing a deterministic multi-echelon, multi-product, and multi-period supply chain network. The developed model provides the possibility of opening or closing facilities at every time period to adapt to market fluctuations. The model also considers bank loans, liability repayment, and new capital from shareholders as decision variables, therefore, it provides an accounts payable policy for the company managers. In addition to common operational objectives(profit/cost) and constraints, we also applied the economic value added (EVA) index to measure the financial performance of supply chain and lower and/or upper limit value for financial ratios to ensure the company's financial health, while making decisions at strategic and tactical levels. To show the model applicability, data of a case study in the literature employed and solved using BARON solver in GAMS software. The results clearly show an improvement in the total value created for the company compared to the base model, so it can be applied as an effective decision tool.
