The Client

A well-known supplier of dairy products in the Middle East responsible for production, packaging, and supply of nutriments sought consultation from Flatworld Solutions for streamlining their distribution process. With 500 sales routes, 24 storehouses, and a strong customer base exceeding 35,000, this brand reaps an annual turnover close to $400 million.

Problems Faced by the Client

The product movement through 500 routes required a strapping delivery plan. Client wanted an efficient method of delivery, and approached Flatworld Solutions to evaluate the activities in the following areas.

Solution Provided by Flatworld

Using evolving technologies like data science and applied engineering, FWS successfully resolved the challenge by applying the route optimization algorithm. With three-dimensional approach and sophisticated route mapping algorithm, we resolved the challenges with great precision. Here's how we did it -

  2. Distance between the store and depots were fed into optimization algorithm to design a superlative route map
  3. Enhanced the delivery plan after incorporating all aspects of the prerequisites such as fleet, location, and time. It enabled enhancing the sales benefits along with the frequency of delivery and number of delivery points
  4. We used ML and genetic algorithms to plan the itinerary in a sequential order that in turn facilitated higher sales volume for the client
  5. Accommodated evolving client constraints through resequencing of routes

The Result
