Abstract

Wheat flour was one alternative that became basic ingredient of food for the household sector and even large industrial enterprises to small business units. The increasing number of people also was followed by the increasing of per capita Indonesian consumption of wheat flour and if it wasn’t followed by the increasing in the number of production there would be shortage of wheat flour in the future. In the current condition, the needs of national wheat flour can be met by existing local producers and assisted with import. The number of plants was very low at Eastern Indonesia that was only one small plant that might not meet the demand of wheat flour for that region, while demand would increase from year by year. Therefore, if it wasn’t followed by building of new plant at Eastern Indonesia, the shortage of wheat flour will be met by supply from Western Indonesia or import. The model that was developed in this research used research approach by Y Hinojasa, et al (2000) and Fulya Altiparmak, et al (2007). The first model tried to meet the demand for consumer products in vary locations based on the criteria of the smallest total cost. The second model tried to determine the set of facilities that would be opened and made the distribution network design to meet the demand of consumers based on the smallest total cost. The result was the determination of the number and location of the new wheat flour plant based on the supply chain total cost minimization which included plant total cost, depot total cost, and transportation total cost. The calculation of transportation total cost used research approach which was developed by Archetti, et al (2006) and then determined the distribution route of wheat flour by using the split delivery vehicle routing problem.
