Abstract

This research analyzes the impact of fresh food handling via rapidly expanding online logistic centers based on location and spatial characteristics. Previous studies pertaining to location factor analysis and location theories were used to examine the location and shipping area characteristics of logistics centers in Korea. Moreover, this research classifies space of logistics centers into an inventory area, sub-inventory area, moving area, and a loading area to analyze the spatial arrangements and construction characteristics. The results of this research revealed that fresh food handling logistics centers tend to consider consumption factors important, therefore locating their logistics centers close to a city centre. Regarding spatial characteristics, especially, fresh food handling city logistic centers were found to have individual inventory area and integrated loading area, but no sub-inventory area for shipping.
