Abstract :
Using the green supply chain supply ecosystem consisting of the supply chain, resources involved, the government and social factors and the delivery mechanism, we formulate the risk and performance criteria as qualitative as well as quantitative measures. Then we solve the multi tier sustainable supplier selection problem using grey relational analysis approach.
