Vehicle routing, logistics, distributionAbstract
This paper reports the results of a survey of vehicle routing decisions of food industries located in Aburra’s Valle (Colombia). The survey includes the elements of the vehicle routing process: type of decisions, special constraints, goals, tools, advantages and disadvantages of the methods currently in use. Finally, some opportunities to improve the distribution process are identified.
