Supplier performance evaluation and selection are multi criteria decision making problems.In supply chain, appropriate selection of vendor has become strategic problem. The decision of supplier selection is unstructured and complicated task purchasing managers of any company. Supplier evaluation process consists both quantitative and quantitative criteria. In this model, cost, quality, delivery, and production facility & capacity are considered in the process of measuring and selection of appropriate supplier.In this study, Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchical Process (FAHP) based on entropy weight is used to choose optimal supplier.The procedure of supplier selection process using fuzzy AHP based on entropy weight are explained with numerical example.
