The project will create a mathematical model for the optimal location of warehouses for a largeCanadian company. The model will take into account existing suppliers (manufacturers) to the distribution,existing outlets to be provisioned by the distribution centres, and the complexity and diversity of productsprovided by the warehouses to the branches. The solution of the mathematicalmodel will determine the location an capacity of warehouses to be built. It will also determine the set ofbranches to be provisioned by each warehouse. The final product will be a decision support system that willenable high level decision making through scenario analysis with analytical and mapped outputs. Thecompletion of this project will enhance Canadian competitiveness providing for continued economic growth.
