Abstract

The present work addresses a multi-period facility location decision during crisis—Pandemic—situation with highly uncertain demand. Our paper identifies failing distribution centres (DCs) over several periods of time and decides about relocation. Several scenarios arise: DCs can be opened, displaced from one location to another, closed or even reopened during a certain time, using mobile facility. We recommend a multi-objective non-linear mixed-integer mathematical model that identifies, for each period, the best possible location for DCs and their allocation to customers. Our model analyses the trade-off between economic costs and $$CO_2$$ C O 2 emissions generated by facilities operations. We suggest a multi-objective approach based on a Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II). Our simulations demonstrate how mobile facility should be managed to ensure a good balance between economic and environmental criteria.
