Abstract

This paper addresses a single period, single product closed loop supply chain (CLSC) allocation problem. We propose an integer linear programming (ILP) model and a progressive constructive heuristics based on Vogel's approximation method-total opportunity cost (VAM-TOC) method. Trials on a number of datasets have yielded encouraging results.
