The case study states the following: “Large South African retailers
whose centralised distribution centres are unable to handle end-user customer
deliveries are also opting for smaller dark stores in industrial locations near
suburban areas. In support, delivery companies are expanding their service
offering too. Uber, for example, is now delivering a range of items, not only
food takeaways”.

You decide on contracting a fleet of local scooters to do deliveries and
to select among potential scooter fleets you use the weighted point method. How
would your selection criteria be weighted?
