“…Contardo and Martinelli (2014) presented the capacitated MDVRP that route length considered as constraints. Nahmias (1982) and Raafat (1991) studied the basics of perishability production and inventory systems with deteriorating items. Tarantilis and Kiranoudis (2002) focused on the distribution of fresh milk and formulation of problem as a heterogeneous fixed fleet VRP.…”

Today, distributing high quality perishable foods is one of the challenging issues in food industry. This paper introduces a deterministic vehicle routing problem model with multiple middle depots and proposes the freshness of perishable foods as a new concept to obtain optimal delivery routes. For the proposed mathematical model, profit maximization of delivering the product, minimization of the transportation costs and vehicle traveling time, and maximum level of delivered product perishability (loss of freshness) are considered. GAMS software is implemented to show the authority of the model. Furthermore, genetic algorithm (GA) has been developed to solve the model for large size instances. Several problems are tested in order to compare the exact and the GA solutions.

“…The replenishment rate was infinite and shortage was not allowed. Raafat et al (1991) developed an inventory control model for deteriorating items with constant demand rate and finite replenishment rate. Pakkala and Achary (1992) developed inventory control model for deteriorating items by considering two warehouses.…”

The present study reviews different studies on inventory control of deteriorating items in chain supply published over the period 1963-2013. The study investigates supply chain of the items in terms of various perspectives. Finally, the summary of the studies is shown in two tables for oneechelon and multi-echelon supply chain including the main information and assumptions of each paper. In the mentioned tables, the papers were classified in terms of the type of demand rate, deterioration rate, solution procedure and findings. It can be said that no analysis on the results was done in the present study and it can be only used as a good reference in the study field for other researchers.

“…Further, deteriorating items with exponential demand developed by Aggarwal and Bahari-Kashani [12] and Wee [13]. Raffat et al [14] and Mak [15] considered EOQ models depending upon deterioration and other different assumptions like instantaneous or finite production rate. Ouyang et al [20] proposed an EOQ model for deteriorating items with exponentially decreasing demand where shortages are allowed and partially backordered.…”

The paper contains an order-level inventory model having the demand rate to be a function of time. Here shortages are allowed and completely backlogged. An optimal model is developed by considering exponential demand which minimizes the total average cost. Numerical examples are used to illustrate the developed model. Sensitivity analysis of the optimal solution with respect to major parameters is carried out.
