Case Study: Schweppes saves time and money with Descartes route planning solution

Schweppes - Customer Case Study

Schweppes Belgium, the international soft drink producer, was struggling with a manual distribution planning process that was time-consuming and inefficient. To improve delivery operations, Schweppes selected Descartes and its route planning solution to automate planning for its seasonal distribution network.

Descartes implemented an interactive route planning and optimization solution that imports orders, calculates daily planning and delivery needs, and generates route sheets, shipping tickets, and loading agendas. As a result, Schweppes saved time and money, improved delivery accuracy, reduced the number of vehicles needed, and delivered more efficiently with far less manual intervention.
