Abstract
The Fuzzy-analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was adopted as the methodology for this study because it allows for the use qualitative judgments by experts. Based on results of the analysis of the success factors for frozen storage/cold storage warehouses, the facility factor was identified as the most important to consider. This factor had a weight of 0.307, followed by systems and operations, accessibility, and standardization/automation with weights of 0.263, 0.255, and 0.175, respectively. The conclusions and implications of the study are as follows. First, the efficiency of constant temperature and humidity systems and the heat insulation property of buildings need to be enhanced. Second, the efficiency of the operations should be enhanced through the standardization of equipment rather than by standardizing product loading. Finally, since logistics and transportation costs are higher for frozen storage/cold storage warehouses than for general distribution, accessibility needs to be considered as the first priority.
