Abstract

The location selection of logistics center is an investment decision-making issue with strategic meaning in the logistics system. This paper firstly analyzes the current domestic and international research on the evaluation of location selection of logistics center. Then based on correlative literature, this paper establishes the indicator system of location selection of logistics center with fuzzy triangular number as the value of the fuzzy indicator. Furthermore, the model of location selection of logistics center is constructed based on combination of fuzzy AHP and TOPSIS, and according to each plan´s relative approximation, the quality sequence is determined. Finally, one case shows the feasibility of the model.
