Abstract
The paper suggests a method for determining the optimal location of service points (warehouses) based on the method for optimal planning of radiation therapy of malignant tumors. This method enabled us to identify the location of the most optimal number of warehouses taking into account their capacity for the required volume of freight transportation and distance from warehouses to consumers. The results of the study coincide with the results obtained by using the method of ant algorithm. The proposed method of finding the optimal location of warehouses enables to significantly minimize the cost of delivering goods from a producer to a consumer.
Highlights
There is a lot of competition in transportation market
As this paper examines a pioneering developed method for optimizing the location of warehouses to customers, which is based on the method for optimal planning of radiation therapy of malignant tumors, there is a need to carry out further experiments in order to determine the bounds of its application and possibilities of its refinement

Summary
There is a lot of competition in transportation market. As a result, the optimization of freight transportation is of great importance. The calculation results indicate that for those customers who remain unused the most optimal warehouse is warehouse D located in Karbyshev street, 18B with a capacity of 5000 kg units of freight.
