Özet:

When we look at the cost chain in all processes from production to consumption, logistics costs appear to have a significant place. It is also a fact that the vast majority of these costs do not have any added value for the customer who is the final user of the product. It is at this point that logistics processes are controlled and well managed in terms of cost efficiency. Because in the globalized world in which products and markets are now interdependent, the areas that can take into account for profitability are increasingly limited. The prices of raw materials used in similar works and all types of equipment used in production processes are very close to each other in terms of cost. This will mean either reducing the profit margin and losing the competitive advantage, or reducing costs by making any improvements that can be made in all processes. Storage activities, which are a significant cost pen that is completely unimportant for the customer among the logistics functional fields and the added value to the product it receives is not seen, must also be assessed in this scope and the cost-efficiency approaches should be adopted in the processes related to storage. In the study, the major split and major aggregate techniques, which are multiple criteria decision-making techniques, were applied, taking into account the same criteria in the choice of storage area and compared the results.
