Abstract
In recent years, determining the best supplier in the green supply chain has become a key strategic task for a firm. Since the decision usually involves several objectives or criteria, the green supplier selection process is a fuzzy multiple criteria decision-making (FMCDM) problem. Considering both qualitative and quantitative criteria, this study proposes new integrated fuzzy techniques for fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP), fuzzy additive ratio assessment (ARASF) and multi-segment goal programming (MSGP) approach to solve the green supplier selection problems. The advantage of this method is that it allows decision makers to set multiple segment aspiration levels for green supplier selection problems. The integrated model is illustrated by an example in a watch firm.

This paper proposes a new novel integration technique using fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP), ARAS-F and Multi-segment goal programming (MSGP) to evaluate and select the best supplier
Given that many multiple segment aspiration levels may exist, a multiple segment approach is most appropriate for this type of decision-making
Summary
Today’s international business environment has required many firms to focus on green supply chain management to gain a competitive advantage. In order to obtain the greatest benefits from environmental management, businesses must integrate all members in the green supply chain (GSC) (Lee et al 2009). Liao et al Integrated FAHP, ARAS-F and MSGP methods for green supplier. The main purpose of green supply chain management (GSCM) process is to decrease environmental pollution and hazardous materials from the green supplier during purchasing, manufacturing, marketing and obsolescing of products. A new integrated method combining FAHP, fuzzy additive ratio assessment (ARAS-F) and Multi-segment goal programming (MSGP) is proposed to solve the FMCDM problem of green supplier selection. Quantitative constraints, such as those related to cost and benefit criteria, are incorporated into the MSGP model to identify the optimal green supplier.
