Abstract

The location selecting of logistics center plays an important role in logistics system strategies. By analyzing and demonstrating several locating methods such as Gravity Method, CFLP Method, Baumol-Wolfe Method and Kuehn-Hamburger Model, the paper aims to set up an integer programming model for the location planning of city logistics center and get the optimal location planning by filtering method, determine the optimal location site of city logistics center taken as the reference for locating city logistics center.
