Abstract
Facility location is an integral part of organizational strategy that can play an essential role in the strategic orientations of the organization. This activity includes many factors that may be inherently conflicting, so that if the necessary checks are not made when choosing a location, it can affect the life of the organization in the long run. The purpose of this study is to investigate the location of facilities in the supply chain distribution and develop a new mathematical model for this problem. This research method uses quantitative, the problem instances have been generated with a variety of different conditions and then solved with the proposed model using the exact solution software GAMS. The results of optimizing the supply chain facility location model show that considering long-term decisions simultaneously can lead to a drastic reduction in supply chain costs.
