This paper deals with the development of a linear goal programming model for solving trans-shipment problems with flexible supply and demand constraints. The model was constructed based on the data obtained from a nationwide retail firm. The Wilcoxon signed-ranked test was used to show the model’s flexibility and applicability. The test results were analysed and interpreted for decision making.
