Abstract: In this study, it is aimed to integrate CODAS method with circular intuitionistic fuzzy sets as a new solution method for MCDM problems. Containing a radius notation with degrees of central membership and non-membership degrees is the main advantage of circular intuitionistic fuzzy in decision making. On the other side, Combinative Distance-based Assessment (CODAS) method contains many advantages such as basing on two types of distance calculations (Euclidean and Taxicab distances) comparing with other MCDM methods. When the advantages of circular intuitionistic fuzzy sets and CODAS method are considered, proposed circular intuitionistic fuzzy CODAS method (CIFS-CODAS) presents many superiorities compared to other MCDM techniques. By this way, an application for green logistics park location selection will be handled by using CIFS-CODAS to show the validity of the methodology. After, a comparative analysis with intuitionistic fuzzy CODAS (IFS-CODAS), intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS (IFS-TOPSIS) and intuitionistic fuzzy EDAS (IFS-EDAS) methods will be performed for green logistics park location selection problem to confirm the robustness of presented method. Green logistics and Green Deal are also emphasized considering environmental factors as a scope of the article. Finally, the results will be evaluated in the context of the logistics sector and green logistics.
