Abstract

In this paper, we consider the joint replenishment problem of a one-warehouse, n-retailer system. We introduce a joint replenishment and delivery strategy of a warehouse and develop a mathematical model based on the proposed strategy. Two efficient algorithms are presented and compared using numerical examples. The proposed strategy is compared with the common cycle strategy for 1,600 randomly generated problems, and has been proven to be superior to the common cycle strategy.
