Abstract

This study dives deep into a lateral supply chain network for perishable food products and aims to determine optimal re-order and order up to levels for multiple e-groceries within a common network using a simulation-based optimization technique. The algorithm aims to minimize the average inventory carried within the network while accounting for parameters like reduced wastage, improved customer satisfaction level, and a limited number of replenishments.
