As supply chains become more interconnected and globalized, they also become more vulnerable, with more potential of failure and less margin of error for absorbing delays and disruptions. Since disturbances a ect the normal operation of a supply chain resulting in pro t loss and poor customer satisfaction, therefore, a resilient supply chain is critical to the success of an enterprise. Natural catastrophes and man-made disasters have signi cantly increased over the past decades. The ood in Thailand and the unexpected tsunami/nuclear leak disaster that hit northern Japan in 2011 have resulted in huge nancial losses and a decline in customer satisfaction in the car manufacturing industries in Asia Paci c and North America. To overcome the increasing uncertainty which resulted from these disasters, a study to identify risk mitigation strategies for an automotive industry is timely. Our objective was to reduce the losses due to possible disasters using an automotive industry as a case example. %U https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_3957_6dae581505e8a5602a371b1854637ae2.pdf
