Warehousing activity is essential for all manufacturing companies (final assemblers and suppliers) of the global supply chains. Warehouses are also key elements of global automotive supply chains because the optimal formation and operation of warehouses play important role in manufacturing companies in order to maintain and increase their competitiveness. Warehousing is one of the most important and cost-intensive logistical processes in which the main goal is to reduce costs and improve efficiency. Determination of the ideal warehouse layout is a special optimization process, not a typical mathematical optimization. Therefore, the warehouse layout design has many special characteristics. In the article, the detailed procedure and characteristics of the special optimization process of the warehouse layout design are described. Furthermore, the study also introduces the most commonly used objective functions, their calculation methods, and a large number of design constraints and limitations. The author elaborated a three-step method for defining the ideal warehouse layout which is also introduced in the paper. The main added-value of the study is, that a detailed procedure of the special optimization process of warehouse layout design was elaborated and described by the author. There is a gap in the existing literature in the research topic of the special optimization process of warehouse layout design because there is not available any article which especially discusses the complex and detailed procedure of the special optimization process in any depth.
