Abstract

The human population has been growing rapidly in recent years. One of the most basic needs of people is food. Many countries around the world invest in the food industry. Climate change, population growth, urbanization, natural disasters, and agricultural efficiency are important factors affecting food production. Companies must constantly control their production, marketing, and supply chain process depending on the rapidly changing competitive conditions. Supply chain management is an important process for companies to be successful and ensure their continuity in the food industry, as in many industries. Analytical hierarchy process (AHP) method is widely used in supplier evaluation. In this study, it was aimed to determine the best supplier of food production company using the AHP method. In the study, three different suppliers were evaluated according to five different criteria by taking the opinions of four experts working in the purchasing department. As a result of the study, the best supplier has been selected.
