Summary, etc. <p style="text-align: left;">Transportation related expenses forms a main chunk of product cost in a multi-stage manufacturing supply chain. It is very important that the decision-makingprocess in such supply chains give prior importance to non-linear transportation costs to be effective. The pressure on firms to reduce carbon emissions to go green had emerged in recent years due to government regulation, need for best possible allocation of available resources, competition from green players and rising awareness on environment protection in the minds of people. Given the increasing focus on emissions by several countries, we also incorporate an emission or pollution factor in our objective. Nowadays many manufacturers have started using more than one channel to connect with their customers to improve their reach; this led to the formation of multi-channel supply chains. Moreover the demand from the customer is not always certain, there is always an amount of vagueness involved, so a supply chain should be responsive enough to tackle such things. This paper deals with modeling and analysis of such problems using fuzzy goal programming.Also, we attempt to deal with transportation related costs considering environmental issues and demand uncertainties while designing of a multi-channel supply chain of milk delivery system of a Diary firm. Teacher-Learner-Based Optimization (TLBO) which does not involve any algorithm specific parameters is applied to solve the problem. The conclusion shows that levy flight distribution in teachers’ phase of TLBO performs better than traditional TLBO.</p>
