Özet
It is very important to choose the mode of transportation that will provide quality service at the lowest cost for a route determined in transportation. Because, each transportation mode has advantages over another and additional costs, accordingly. Businesses have to evaluate multiple criteria and alternatives together when selecting the most appropriate transport mode. This assessment consists of a complex process that requires many variables to be analyzed at the same time. Multi-criteria decision making techniques can be used in solving this complexity. In this study, the transportation mode selection problem of a logistics company operating on cherry production and exporting in Kayseri province is discussed. Through a literature review and interview with the decision makers, who are experts in their field, thirteen criteria and four alternatives have identified for the transport mode selection problem. In order to solve the problem, importance weight of the criteria is determined with the Best-Worst Method and then supplier alternatives are ranked using the WASPAS (Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment) method.
