Summary/Abstract: The construction of companies logistic system requires consideration of the specific issues related to the supplies to large metropolitan cities, as it constitutes a much greater challenge in comparison with deliveries to customers in the small and medium-sized towns. An essential element of the delivery system to great cities, in addition to transport, are warehouses. Storage locations have a significant impact on the effectiveness of supply systems. They depend on one hand on customers’ needs and, on the other, on the possibility to build the logistic facility in a given area or the availability of the speculative storage space owned by developers. It is worth stressing that the logistic facilities foster the municipalities (or small or medium sized cities), in which they are built, as well as increase the attractiveness of large cities, thanks to improving trade flows to and within these cities.
