    Abstract
    Due to the expansion of Industries, competition among manufactures is increasing. This increased competition includes increasing the number of competitors and the development of existing companies. In a competitive market, companies try to increase their market share and to maximize their profits by using different methods such as innovation in their products, pricing, marketing and other factors. In this study we introduce protein products market in Tehran and companies that compete in this market. Then we use an appropriate model to estimate the market share situation of Tehran meat products company (Solico). To find the market share situation, we need to know the effective characteristics...

    , Article Journal of Intelligent and Fuzzy Systems ; Vol. 27, Issue. 6 , 2014 , pp. 2897-2914 ; ISSN 1875-8967 Khalaj, M. R ; Modarres, M ; Tavakkoli-Moghaddam, R ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    A multi-echelon supply chain design problem concerns the structure of the network and allocation of resources of the company to meet the demand forecast. This paper tries to design a multi-echelon supply chain network with five echelons including supplier, cross-dock, plant, distribution center and representative (customer). For this purpose, a mixed-integer mathematical model is developed to investigate the location of cross-docks, distribution centers, and also allocation between each pair of parties in order to minimize total cost of location and transportation. Due to the complexity of the model, a novel genetic algorithm is developed and applied on a real-world case study of Iran Khodro...
