A Hybrid Multiple Criteria Decision Making Model for Selecting the Location of Women’s Fitness Centers

Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Location selection is a critical problem for businesses that can determine the success of an organization. Selecting the optimal location from a pool of alternatives belongs to a multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problem. This study employed a hybrid MCDM technique to select locations for women’s fitness centers in Taiwan.
