| description | The choice of location is of paramount importance in modern business decision. It has become one of the most important operational strategies in managing operations of large business organizations. The three common approaches of location selections are Factor-Rating Method, the Centre of Gravity Approach and the Transportation Model approach.

Hierarchy Process (AHP) approach in selecting business location. |
