Abstract :
This paper applied the data envelopment analysis and the stochastic frontier analysis based on Cobb-Douglas production function to found the model for logistics center location, studied the problem by the real data, and tested the consistency of the two methods and got the conclusion that can make comprehensive use of the DEA and the SFA to solve the problem of logistics center location (LCL).
