The location-routing problem (LRP) and its variants have been studied extensively over the past few years. The number of articles has grown more than ever, since the last surveys. Therefore, this study aims to perform a review of recent LRP research from 222 academic literature published from 2014 to 2019. The analysis of publication intensity, problem characteristics, solution methods, and application areas was executed to draw the state-of-the-art of LRP research. As the main contributions to this study, a new taxonomy was proposed to capture some recently emerging issues in LRP and some suggestions for future research were listed and discussed.
