However, in retailing industry, there were few researches on this topic. Further, in the past, the researches of retailers’ selection of supplier for direct purchasing were qualitative researches, lacking of consideration over many factors such as weight analysis or comparative importance. After discussing the related literatures from home and abroad and interviewing with professionals, this research concluded four significant factor dimensions in supplier selection: cost, quality and delivery, service records, finance and organization. This research adopted decision support software to conduct consistency test and AHP (Analytic hierarchy process) to determine the weights of each dimensions. From the results, the most important factors influencing supplier selection were “product price” in “cost”, “quality stability” in “quality and delivery”, “service activeness” in “service records” and “contractual capability” in “finance and organization.”
