The object of this study is suppliers of fresh vegetable and its supply chain in the Yogyakarta Province, Indonesia. The evaluation of the importance factors of supply chain performance is analyzed based on the combination of methods Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR). The result shows that the most influencing factory to the supply chain performance is factor of attribute costs (31.04%) with a sub-attribute product guarantee fee (48.90%). Meanwhile, the most preferred alternatives is modern market as weighted at 34.6%, followed by regular-restaurants (32.5%), and franchise-restaurants (18.4%), and traditional markets (15.4%) is the least preferred.
