Today, logistics is effective in every field and has an important share in the revival of both domestic and foreign trade. The rapid increase in competition in global trade has increased the importance of the logistics sector and, accordingly, logistics centers. With well-planned and high-performance logistics centers in our country, the contribution of the logistics sector to the economy will increase and it will be ensured that our country is a logistics base in international transportation corridors. In this study, Criteria were determined conducting a comprehensive literature review for logistics center location These criteria consist of seven main criteria, namely population, economy, cost, socio-economic status, infrastructure, geographical location and service, and twenty-seven sub-criteria belonging to these main criteria. The criterias were evaluated by benefiting from the opinions of experts in the field of logistics, and the order of importance of the main and sub-criteria determined for the logistics center location determination was found by AHP methods.

“…Divahar and Sudhahar [36] used quality, reverse logistics cost, delivery, and technology capability as criteria and applied the AHP to evaluate the selection of reverse logistics providers. Peng [37] used the AHP to analyze the characteristics of outsourcing providers in the logistics industry; they used evaluation indices such as logistics cost, logistics operation efficiency, basic service suppliers' quality, and logistics technology level and examined targetability and practicability of such indices.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected the world’s manufacturing industry, particularly in terms of the continued increase in logistics costs that has led to an increase in business operating costs. This study proposes a two-stage model for evaluating the most appropriate outsourcing logistics companies for a manufacturing factory. In the first stage, a modified Delphi method was used to recruit experienced experts to determine criteria for evaluating outsourcing logistics vendors and establish a hierarchical structure. In the second stage, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used to evaluate suitable logistics companies based on the hierarchical structure. Finally, a case study was conducted to demonstrate the suitability of the two-stage model for evaluating outsourcing logistics companies for reducing logistics costs while maintaining service quality. The proposed model can be used as a basis for evaluating outsourcing logistics companies.

“…The application of AHP has been made in diverse areas. This includes the optimum design of distribution network based on cost and service criteria keeping in mind the product characteristics (Sharma et al., 2008), supplier evaluation for high‐value and critical items (Das and Barman, 2010), selection of reverse logistics provider (Divahar and Sudhahar, 2012), and so forth. We also observed a few applications of AHP in the context of healthcare.…”

The present work has been carried out to develop a performance evaluation framework of distribution network design in public health with specific reference to essential medicines based on six different types of public health distribution networks (PHDNs) prevalent across six Indian states. We evaluated the performance of PHDNs on the criteria of cost and service and also on the sub-criteria of cost and service by following the analytic hierarchy process. We utilized the pairwise comparison method in determining the relative importance of criteria and sub-criteria by seeking responses from several experts and subsequently evaluated the PHDNs on all sub-criteria in a 7-point Likert scale by seeking views from the same experts. Finally, we developed the "cost-service matrix," in which cost and service have been depicted in the horizontal and vertical axes, respectively. We demonstrated the performance of six PHDNs in this matrix in terms of cost and service by plotting scores obtained by them on cost and service, respectively. The findings of the study provide rich insights to the policy planners of public health.
