    To be able to do such things in a reasonable time you have to pre-calculate the distances between any pair of branches and store this into a physical table in the model. Best would be to calculate this in Power Query or in an outside source system (like, say, SQL). Depending on the amount of data, it may not be feasible to do it in DAX as a calculated table. Once you have such a table, it's then dead easy to find what you want.
