Title: Controlling inventories in a supply chain: a case study
Abstract: This article studies specific aspects of the joint replenishment problem in a real supply  chain setting. Particularly we analyze the effect on inventory performance of having minimum  order quantities for the different products in the joint order, given a complex transportation  cost structure. The policies suggested have been tested in a simulation model with real data.
