To achieve this goal, the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method has been used. First, the effective factors were identified and all calculations were done in ExpertChoice software. The findings from the prioritization of different dimensions show that the environmental dimension is in the first place with a weight of 0.32, the economic dimension is in the second place with a weight of 0.309, the ethical dimension is in the third place with a weight of 0.21, and the social dimension is in the fourth place with a weight of 0.156.
