This thesis presents models for coordinating between production and distribution systems for a company with various products from its multiple processing locations through its multiple distribution centers to its customers over a multi-period horizon. The models is used to solve an example based on an actual problem faced by Unilever Vietnam. Two, monolithic and hierarchical, approaches are presented with models and solutions. Advantage of hierarchical approach for production/distribution planning is justified.
