Abstract: Abstract This paper deals a multi-objective multi-item solid transportation problem (MMSTP) with fuzzy inequality constraints in profit maximization and time minimization forms. Following fuzzy chance programming, more specificity possibility-necessity theory, an approach to conversion of the imprecise MMSTP to the equivalent deterministic form is formulated. Fuzzy interactive satisfied method is adopted to derive optimal compromise solutions of the MMSTP through generalized reduced gradient technique. In order to obtain best non-dominating solution, the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution is applied. Finally, a numerical example and a statistical test namely, analysis of variance illustrate and signify the feasibility and validity of the proposed model and techniques.
