Abstract
An investigation and analysis were carried out to determine the best strategic location for the installation of a dry port in Honduras with the aim of deepening and analyzing individually the best location proposed by each criterion. Honduras has been affected by multiple limitations; these weaknesses have caused problems in logistics services that result in a negative impact that significantly affects the country. For the completion of each established objective, an exhaustive investigation was carried out in different sources for the final determination of the criteria with a greater impact on the project, these were defined as socioeconomic, environmental, location and accessibility criteria. In this way, a database of relevant quantitative data in the country was obtained to proceed with the implementation of Weber's method and begin to define the best location for each criterion individually.
