Abstract :The purpose of this paper is to summarise the more important techniques used to analyse the multi-echelon inventory control problem. An introductory section defines the term "multiechelon" and establishes the kinds of problems involving multi-echelon considerations. Subsequent two sections provide review of work in multi-echelon inventory theory with respect to selections from the literature. Deterministic-Stochastic dichotomy, is used as a distinguishing feature to categorise models. The penultimate section discusses the recent work on the subject and the last section contains conclusions and a direction for further research.Keywords : multi echelon inventory models
