Abstract

This paper uses optimization technique and decision making method to find the optimum location for a group of distribution centers. Two levels of distribution center location have been found out. The first level uses set covering methodology to obtain the location which is the location for regional distribution center. The second level uses Analytical Hierarchy Process to obtain the location which is the location for local distribution center. This problem finds the location for two levels of distribution center for the state of Ohio considering various factors and conditions, primarily focusing on population and income.
