Although drugstore chain in China started late, but because of its standardized management, high reputation and professional management, make it develop so fast. However, according to statistics drug costs pharmaceutical companies circulation costs accounted for12.1%of2012industry-wide pharmaceutical retail logistics costs are10%of total sales. With the medical logistics development, many pharmaceutical retail chain enterprises have realized that the medical logistics were very important for enterprises business operations. So they introduced advanced logistics technology, recruitment professionals, establish modern warehouse to improve the level of logistics management. But these advanced logistics technology and equipment needs huge investment. It maybe cause severe economic pressure for enterprises. In addition to consumed the energy of companies. So many pharmaceutical retail chain enterprises, especially small and medium enterprises that have chosen to outsource to a professional logistics third-party logistics company, will all focus on pharmaceutical sales and management. It not only can reduces logistics costs, reducing the pressure on investment, but also greatly enhance the company’s business performance. However, due to pharmaceutical logistics has its uniqueness, this how many pharmaceutical logistics service providers in the logistics enterprises choose their own service provider is also a major problem. However, if wrong logistics Provides have been chosen, the outsourcing strategy would not be achieved and it would bring a series of business risks.Firstly, This paper analyzed the relevant theories and logistics providers of medical chain enterprises and their logistics Providers. And give a detailed analysis of the pharmaceutical retail chain enterprises in the logistics characteristics and needs analysis. And then, according to the research achievements, the evaluation index system has been established, which is applicable for the logistics service providers of Pharmaceutical chain enterprises. Finally, it proposed the evaluation model with the gray correlation analysis method and AHP evaluation model.Based on the characteristics of pharmaceutical lcgistics and chain operation requires the establishment of a special evaluation system, including enterprise strength, price, cooperation, service capabilities in four areas. It includes12indicators, like GSP certification, distribution capabilities, logistics and technology, emergency case processing capabilities, service flexibility, price, delivery punctuality, delivery accuracy, cargo damage rate, customer satisfaction, cooperation, collaboration, strategic objectives compatible degrees. Logistics service providers in the existing selection methods based on the study established hierarchy-gray correlation analysis model. Model are as follows:First, using AHP to build the index system hierarchical structure, calculated for each indicator relative to the overall objective of index weight; then use the gray correlation analysis were calculated for each candidate service providers with the ideal service provider correlation value; finally index weights and weighted correlation coefficient values obtained new correlation coefficient values used to evaluate each candidate service providers to improve the results of the evaluation of the objective and scientific.
