Abstract
In this paper, we present a new mathematical model for designing a reverse logistic network. The model is multiproduct, multilevel, and multiperiod. It minimizes transportation and facilities establishing cost, and lowers purchasing from suppliers. The price of products depends on the cost of purchases and suppliers present different discounts on their products. Because the presented problem belongs to Np-hard problems, we use genetic algorithm to solve it.
