11 Warehouse Location Problem Acme Block Company considers construction of warehouses to ship concrete blocks from 2 plants to 2 suburban locations. Annual demand at each sub-urban locations is: Westwood th. tons, and Eastwood th. tons. Acme has two plants. Plant 1 can produce 50 th. tons per year, and plant 2 can produce 75 th tons per year. Three warehouse locations that Acme is considering are referred to as A, B, and C. They are described on the next slide. Only one warehouse can be built. Based on McCarl and Spreen 11
