A hybrid Cuckoo search algorithm and NSGA-II algorithm called NSGA-II-Cuckoo is proposed and applied to find a set of non-dominated solutions for multi-objective supply chain problem. In NSGA-II-Cuckoo, the cuckoo search algorithm is applied to generate the initial population that considers as a good start for another algorithm to reduce the time, avoids the local optima entrapment so its effect on the accuracy of the final solutions obtained by the NSGA-II algorithm. The presented results clarify the enhanced performance for the NSGA-II-Cuckoo algorithm, which provides a sufficient stability and robustness for solving multi-objective supply chain problem.
