Abstract

Este artículo presenta un estudio de aplicación de las metodologías de Centro de gravedad y Modelo AHP, con el fin de proponer la mejor ubicación para un centro de distribución, en vez de tener múltiples almacenes independientes, para una empresa comercializadora de productos industriales en Colombia. Como caso práctico de estudio, se utilizan los datos de una empresa comercializadora de productos industriales, con ocho sucursales a nivel nacional, donde no hay políticas claras en el manejo de la mercancía y mucho menos, en el movimiento de esta entre las diferentes sucursales. ****** This paper presents an implementation study of the methodologies: Center of Gravity and AHP Model, with the aim of suggesting the best location for a distribution center, instead of having multiple independent stores, for a marketing company of industrial products in Colombia.

This company has eight branches nationwide and it has no clear policies about the handling of goods and even less clear about the transportation of them among the different branches.
