Abstract
The logistics service providers supply a kind of service which is a service product, thus there is a plenty of uncertainty and fuzzy in selecting logistics service providers. AHP is first used to calculate the weights of logistics services providers evaluations and then VIKOR method developed for multi-criteria optimization determining a compromise solution is applied to select the logistics services providers. The latter method provides a maximum “group utility” for the “majority” and minimum of an individual regret for the “opponent”. This decision making process of logistics services providers selection is verified to be scientific and feasible through the empirical research.
