An illustrate example in a cosmetic and beauty community enterprise was conducted to implement how to select the most suitable supplier using TOPSIS method. A set of criteria and sub-criteria were identified from a real case company. The decision was made on the basis of observation of three suppliers with four criteria and ten sub-criteria.
