Location selection for the logistics distribution center is often one of the most critical elements in a supply chain’s management success. Decision making in location selection domain is a complex process due to the fact that a wide range of diverse criteria, stakeholders and possible solutions are embedded into this process. This paper focuses on the application of some multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approaches for the logistics distribution fruit center location selection in the Southern and Eastern Serbia region. An Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and a Weighted Aggregated Sum-Product Assessment (WASPAS) have been implemented in this process for evaluation and location selection.
