Özet:

Given the globalized world and increasing competition conditions, the establishment of the organization’s place is critical for the business’s success. The establishment of the position in the paper industry with economic potential in Turkey is important in terms of sector investments. In the sector, especially in recent years, the recycling of waste paper, which is one of the most important areas of logistics, provides a large amount of raw materials. In this study, a decision support model was proposed to determine the most suitable location from five candidate cities for paper factory establishment. For this purpose, multi-dimensional decision-making methods based on the mathematical and logical model that are often used due to the variety of locations alternatives and the complexity of their criteria have been used. The study identified the criteria for the assessment of the location of the organization; market, labour, raw materials, transport, incentives, waste, energy and land. In the application, solutions were made using the AHP, TOPSIS and PROMETHEE methods and the results were compared and effective decisions were made. It is believed that this application will create a forecast for locations choices in other industries.
