The most common problem among a vast variety of design and performance management problems for the industrial enterprises supply chain networks is determining transport and storage processes’ characteristics in the areas of high population density. The divergence of the logistic structure development in the area has a major influence on the choice of location for the warehouses and the characteristics of the corresponding material flows. This article addresses the issues of determining transport and warehousing systems characteristics in a major population center and its suburbs. In particular, this means the warehouse location and the delivery lot sizes. The article suggests a procedure for solving this problem based on a set of mathematical models using linear and non-linear optimization via the standard algorithms of common computer software like Microsoft Excel, Mathcad, MatLab, etc.
