The generation of layout alternatives is a critical step in the facility planning process; the selected layout will serve to establish the physical relationships between activities. Reducing the distance and increasing the occupancy rate are considered two important variables for the optimal design of a logistics center. This article applies the Systematic Layout Planning (SLP) methodology and discrete event simulation to a fruit logistics center in the agro-industrial free zone of the Patía region, department of Cauca, to improve the distance and the percentage of occupation of forklifts in the production to storage area and loading of final product to storage. The solution developed reduces the total distance traveled in the production zone by 10% and increases the percentage of occupancy by 19.11%. On the other hand, in the final product loading zone, the distance is reduced by 13% and the occupancy percentage increases by 31.82%. It is found that the proposed approach improves both the occupancy percentage and the distance traveled
