LOCATION
;acility location is the process of determining a geographic sitefor a >rm=s operations.
Nestle (ac# has located one of its factories at Eabirwala.
REASONS FOR SELECTIN! THIS LOCATION
PRO)IMITY TO SPPLIERS AND RESORCES
his factory has been located in this area because here thesupply of mil# is more than the re6uirement of the local area.his factory location is immensely surrounded by Argicultrualfarms, villages and small towns. he people o f thess areas havetheir own
Animals and the feudals of the region have their own live stoc#farms. So there is abundant mil# available.
;urthermore, by locating one factor y at Shei#hupura and theother at Eabirwala the Nestl "il#(a# can cover the geographicarea of mil# collection very well, especially the area of whole(unBab.
REPTATION OF THE LOCATION
(lacing of the factory at Eabirwala is also advantageous in thisway that at the current place there was actually the factory in thename of Eabirwala 0airies 7td. 8E079. So the place has thereputation of having a mil# factory. he suppliers of mil# arealready oriented with this location.
