In a modern market economy, enterprises have to compete at the regional and international levels. To carry out activities on a global scale, an appropriate system is required to determine the optimal location of the transport terminal in the supply chain. This study is dedicated to achieving several goals: determining the location of facilities that are major shippers; determining the optimal location of transport terminals. To solve this problem, it is proposed to use linear programming and the algorithm for determining the transport terminal with geographical coordinates. The results show that the algorithm makes it possible to efficiently solve problems of various sizes within a reasonable time.
