Abstract: In this paper, an integrated logistics network model with lo-cation and allocation problem (ILN-LA) is designed. The ILN-LA which is composed forward and reverse logistics is represented by a nonlinear mixed integer programming (NMIP). The objective of the NMIP is to maximize the total profit resulting from the implementation of the ILN-LA. A hybrid genetic algorithm (HGA) approach is applied to solve the NMIP. In numerical experiment, three scales of the ILN-LA are presented and their NMIPs are solved using the HGA approach and some conventional approaches. Experimental results show that the HGA approach outperforms the others.
