Firstly, the algorithm for the AHP is determined. Then, pair-wise comparison matrices for determined criteria and alternatives were prepared by decision-makers, and matrices were transferred to the Super Decision package program for the solution. </i> </span> </div> <div style="text-align:justify;"> <span style="font-size:12px;"> <b>Result and Discussion: </b> <i>As a result, the most important criterion in the selection of the pharmaceutical warehouse location was determined as the infrastructure and physical conditions (35%) and transportation conditions (29%) followed by it. According to these criteria, the first alternative was found as the optimum. </i> </span> </div>}, number={2}, publisher={Ankara Üniversitesi}
