Deep-Dive into VRP Problem-solving with Region based Fleet Management and Dock Placement Strategies
<p>In the <strong>dynamic landscape</strong> of urban logistics, <strong>where demand for proximity stores continues to surge</strong>, the optimization of <strong>distribution networks</strong> becomes paramount. This case study delves into a <strong>Super and Hypermarket</strong> food distribution network in Portugal, where over <strong>200 stores in 10 regions</strong> are serviced through one distribution center. As the complexity grows with the expansion of smaller proximity stores, the challenge at hand is to design a <strong>transportation network</strong> and <strong>truck fleet</strong> with <strong>dock placement strategies</strong> that <strong>minimizes total costs while maximizing efficiency.</strong></p>
