The problem is formulated as a mixed integer programming model and solved using GAMS software. As the developed model is a mixed integer non leaner programming and NP-hard, a new algorithm for re-formulation is proposed to change it to a mixed integer leaner programming and also a new heuristic algorithms is proposed to solve it in a reasonable time. To prove the applicability of the model, the well-known real CAB data set is used. Numerical examples show the benefit of the proposed model in both solution time and result quality.}, keywords = {Multi-level,Multi-period,Supply chain performance elements,P-hub median problem,Production planning}, url = {http://www.ijsom.com/article_2775.html}, eprint = {http://www.ijsom.com/article_2775_f0eba795316cdd9a040b97db37616426.pdf} }
