Home-Base, a home improvement/building supply chain, is going to build a new warehouse facility to serve its six stores. The coordinates of the stores (in kilometres), using the headquarters of the company as the origin (0, 0) of a set of coordinates, and the annual truckloads that supply each store are shown below.

Determine the best site using the centre of gravity technique.
