Abstract

Location-routing problems (LRPs) simultaneously decide on the locations of facilities and routes originating from these facilities to serve a set of customers. This survey describes recent developments in deterministic LRPs, considering multiple planning periods, multiple echelons, or multiple objectives. We give detailed summaries of the papers, focusing on the central properties of the described problems and the proposed solution methods. We identify shortcomings in the current literature, provide recommendations to mitigate them, highlight application cases, and list promising topics for further research.
