Case Study: Global Food Distributor Company boosts transportation efficiency and cuts route miles with Aptean Routing & Scheduling Paragon Edition

Global Food Distributor Company - Customer Case Study

Global Food Distributor Company, a leading global food logistics provider, faced severe delivery constraints from manual planning processes as volumes grew: planners were scheduling roughly 2,000 deliveries per week across mixed truck fleets, handling diverse customer requests that drove up transportation costs, and planning each customer's orders separately which created inefficient routes. To address these challenges they turned to Aptean Routing & Scheduling Paragon Edition.

Aptean Routing & Scheduling Paragon Edition implemented daily dynamic route planning to optimize routes, improve truck utilization and eliminate manual planning, enabling order consolidation and faster planning cycles. The solution delivered measurable gains: truck utilization rose by 3%, average travel distance per route fell by 15%, average driving hours per route dropped by 6.2%, and the company gained the ability to combine customers’ orders in trucks while reducing delivery time and miles.
