    This paper is devoted to a class of location problems with polyhedral norms. The objective function is shown to be a piecewise convex function which has to be maximized. We prove that the optimal locations belong to a finite set of intersection points, and we present an efficient method operating upon this finite set and providing a strict local maximum with few computational effort.
