Hybrid Make-To-Stock (MTS)-Make-To-Order (MTO) manufacturing is a well-known policy that captures the benefits of both MTS and MTO policies. This paper presents an integrated single objective production, inventory and distribution planning in a multi-product, multi period under hybrid MTS/ MTO strategy. The objective of the model is to minimize the total cost involved in running the supply chain SC via Fuzzy Goal Programming (FGP) approach. The model is tested with a set of realistic data and the optimal results show the validation of the model. It was concluded that the total cost of the SC was minimized and the decision variables were obtained.
