There has been a recent years tendency for replacing traditional supply chain data identifying and collecting systems with RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technologies. There are different RFID solutions on the market and it is crucial to choose the solution that best suits the set of goals and desired scenarios. The choice of solution depends on a whole range of different factors and criteria. The present paper develops multi-criteria evaluation models based on the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and FAHP (Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process) approach. There are no papers in the literature that solve the mentioned problem in this way, on a real example. Three RFID solutions are defined referring to different data identification levels in supply chains, namely: product level, level of packaging and the level of the pallet. Solutions are evaluated, and rated in relation to four criteria: investments, costs, participants' visibility and participants' privacy protection in supply chains. Developed models are tested and applied via a case study conducted in the Serbian market. The model is an excellent basis for decision-making in practice and for researchers in the literature, while with certain modifications, it can be used for other similar problems.

“…Beside delivery time, for evaluation of distribution channels success, different costs arising from the distribution process should be analysed, for example: warehouse costs, transportation costs, inventory costs, equipment costs etc. (Andrejić & Kilibarda, 2015). Long distribution channels have more challenges to face considering that those channels have more storage points and product movements.…”

Distribution network is a system of activities that provide transfer of products between producers and final users. It is also known as distribution channel, marketing channel, distribution chain, distribution pipeline, market chain and trade chain. This network has two or more partners, so it has to be coordinated in the direction of order fulfilment and satisfied demand. As a partnership business network, distribution channels are very important, due to their role in responding to customers' requests. Distribution channels could provide competitive advantage for all partners along the network, through shorter delivery lead time and higher product availability. Although the main purpose of distribution channels is providing continuous flows of products to customers, they should be designed to fill customer's demand with minimum total cost. Determining the right number of facilities and proper locations for distribution network is an essential issue for companies involved in the channel. The issue of distribution channel's length has become more interesting due to the parallel existence of two different trends. On one hand, there is tendency for reducing number of partners, facilities or stages of distribution channels, with the purpose of avoiding extra expenses, but on the other hand there is a necessity to involve more partners in distribution channel, because that is a way for providing greater market share. Configuration of distribution channels depends on many factors. These factors have internal or external character. Therefore, the fact that the distribution of the same products in different countries can be performed completely differently is not surprising at all. In this regard, the aim of this papers is to classify the factors that affect the length of the distribution channel. In addition, the paper will also indicate advantages as well disadvantages of both long and short distribution channels. The goal of the analysis of the factors and the way of designing distribution channels, in terms of its length, is to make an adequate decision for increasing efficiency of the distribution network.

“…Logistics does not escape distribution, after receiving the sales order, start the delivery procedure, the transportation process is to unload the cargo at the destination-complete the delivery process. (Profile, 2021), Order processing, storage, picking, packing, inventory control, and transportation are some of the processes involved in distribution (Andrejić &;Kilibarda, 2015). The supply chain of a company or organization includes logistics and distribution as important components, in distribution is also embraced by the possibility of reliability, according to (Yu et al, 2012) Distribution flexibility can be defined as the ability to change the distribution process efficiently or effectively to suit the needs of either customer directly or indirectly.…”

The purpose of the study to see whether these three variables already exist that discuss quantitatively or qualitatively, will also be presented scientific articles related to the three variables above the research method used is a literature review derived from existing scientific articles from various journals in the world related to variables. The results of research whose perspective the researcher does not exist directly state the results with certainty are only the perspective of previous authors and add strongly to the results of previous research.
