Abstract

The objective of this research is to select the appropriate specially controlled warehouse location in Udon Thani Province related with the examining of the center of gravity coordinates with the hierarchical analysis process. From the outcome, it cannot be determined the location of the warehouse because the coordinates are government areas, which are guilty under the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, Article 27 (3). Therefore, it must identify the local area to that coordinate. It is found that there are 4 locations that can be set up at Ban Chan Warehouse, Nadi warehouse, Mak Khaeng warehouse, and Nong Bua warehouse. The major factors in location selection through the analysis hierarchical process are cost, infrastructure, society and environment. The secondary factors are the warehouse costs, freight costs, labor costs, tax costs, access to the main roads, information systems, utilities community impact on youth air pollution and noise pollution. From the analysis, it was found that the social and environmental have the highest mean weight of 0.5136. The secondary impact factor from the community has the highest weight mean value is 0.2180. Therefore, the Ban Chan warehouse is an appropriate location with the highest mean weight of importance of 0.3122.
