The paper deals with handling equipment that can be used to transport/handle the final products in a selected industrial enterprise. The suitable handling equipment listed in the short-listwereselected by the authors of the paper based on the entry requirements and conditions of the enterprise and trends in material/final product handling towards increasing automation, enhancing productivity and maximizing safety. The Analytic Hierarchy Process method was used to support decision making on the appropriate handling equipment and specific calculations were carried out in the Expert Choice program. The Analytic Hierarchy Process as a tool of exact decision-making methods increases the objectivity of decision in general as well as the quality of suitable handling equipment selection in a particular industrial enterprise. One of the conditions of the enterprise for the equipment selection was the use of Intelligent/Smart solutions in the process of finished goods handling from the manufacturing area to warehouse.
