Title: Intelligent optimization of location and distribution in competitive closed-loop supply chains
Abstract: 
Development of supply chains is one of the practical concepts in the field of production and sales in competitive conditions. Accordingly, it is necessary to properly study the competitive conditions in which supply chain networks can be designed. In this regard, the present research contributes to the field by incorporating the market share and customer satisfaction to the competitive conditions of supply chains. In this presentation, mathematical modeling of closed-loop supply chain under competitive conditions is presented. Moreover, to solve such models, some exact solution methods are discussed. Comparisons are also provided in terms of the value of the objective functions as well as the solution time.
