Abstract :

Today reverse logistics has become one of the most challenging issues in the areas of the automotive supply chain. Therefore, understanding the factors that influence the implementation of reverse logistics is important. We can point to the reasons why organizations pay attention to this subject: Competitive incentives, direct economic incentives, and environmental reasons. In many cases, there are certain rules and regulations in the areas returns that have forced the organizations to pay more attention to this sector. In this research, we determined primary criterions with collecting determined criterions of previous studies and also taking experts’ opinions which consists 3 economical, environmental and social criterions and 19 sub criterions. Then these factors were given to experts in the form of a questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed with the confirmatory factor analysis method. Finally, a number of factors have been removed and the final factors remained. In order to rank the factors, these factors were given to experts in the form of ANP (Network Analysis Process) questionnaire again. Then we used fuzzy ANP method for measuring interdependencies and criterions ranking.
