This study addresses eco-economic multi-objective modeling to optimize cross-docking operations in the steel supply chain. Moving beyond conventional literature that often relies on homogeneous fleets and single-product assumptions, a key innovation here is the incorporation of product and vehicle diversity through specific indexed modeling, which captures complex, real-world industrial constraints. The model is solved using an efficient hybrid metaheuristic approach, where NSGA-II performs global exploration while Simulated Annealing (SA) is embedded as a local search operator to refine solutions within each generation. Computational experiments demonstrate a zero percent optimality gap in small dimensions, with the hybrid approach maintaining high efficiency for large-scale industrial cases. Furthermore, sensitivity analysis using real data from the Isfahan Mobarakeh Steel Company provides actionable insights for managers: it identifies critical operational bottlenecks (loading, unloading, and internal transfer durations) and enables data-driven trade-offs between logistical makes pan and greenhouse gas emissions, establishing the model as a robust decision-support tool for sustainable heavy industry operations.
