Shanghai agricultural products logistics distribution center location based on Fuzzy AHP

Abstract

Reasonable agricultural products logistics distribution center can not only improve the network system of agricultural products logistics, but can also lower the cost of distribution for agricultural products logistics, improving the living standards of residents. On the basis of assumption that distribution demand points for agricultural products in Shanghai are 117 towns, 13 district governments, 1 People's Government and 1 county government, The cluster analysis method and Floyd algorithm have been employed to achieve minimization of all paths to get the Shanghai agricultural product logistics distribution center alternatives. Combined with the Fuzzy AHP, a comprehensive analysis of Shanghai agricultural products logistics distribution center alternatives is performed. Thus, the result shows Zhenru Town in Putuo district is the most suitable site for establishing the Shanghai agricultural products logistics distribution center, improving the development of the agricultural products logistics, the urban environment and the living standards of residents in Shanghai.
