Designing Antifragile and Agile Food Supply Chains

Playing a critical role in any country, the food industrymust guarantee a steady availability of food to consumers.Food supply chains are often vulnerable and unstable,particularly during crises. Currently, stakeholders arebeing urged to improve supply chain risk management toaddress multiple disruptive and operational risks. Thisstudy proposes an antifragile and agile food Supply ChainNetwork Design (SCND) that integrates concepts ofresiliency, robustness and risk. The model's objective costfunction employs combining robust stochastic optimizationwith Entropic Value at Risk (EVaR). Antifragility isintroduced through learning effects on variable parametersand resiliency and agility through flexible capacity andmulti-resource and demand satisfaction constraints. Themodel's performance, including antifragility, is comparedagainst a model without it, showing a cost reduction of0.42%. The model's application is evaluated using anumerical example, conducting a sensitivity analysis
