Abstract
The structure of the global supply chain creates an imbalance in trade between regions of the world. It creates many empty containers on the ocean shipping route. Focusing on this problem, we will develop an empty container relocation plan for empty containers in a marine container logistics network connecting multiple bases and propose a model that minimizes the total cost of container transportation. The proposed model was verified by the simulation designed and developed in this study, and the effectiveness of the proposed model was shown by the data of the marine transportation company.
