Abstract: This paper attempts to introduce explicitly the role of demand function into a profit-maximizing location model and examine the effects of increased price uncertainty on the optimum location of the risk-neutral firm. It has been shown that the results derived crucially depend upon the interaction between demand function, production function and transport costs structure.
