In the Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industry, timely stock fulfillment across thousands of retail outlets dictates shelf availability. A regional FMCG distributor operating 80 logistics vehicles faced escalating fuel expenses and severe delivery delays. Here is how Goodsyst’s Dynamic Routing AI transformed their distribution efficiency.
1. The Challenge: Manual Route Planning and Heavy Urban Traffic
Previously, dispatch supervisors mapped delivery runs manually on whiteboards each morning. Drivers frequently encountered peak-hour congestion along overlapping routes, driving daily late-delivery rates to 25%.
2. The Solution: Dynamic Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) Algorithms
Goodsyst integrated an intelligent VRP routing engine within the distribution ERP. The algorithm evaluates geolocation coordinates of 1,000 retail storefronts, truck volumetric capacities, delivery time windows, and live traffic patterns to compute optimal dispatch routes within seconds.
3. The Results: 22% Fuel Savings and 30% Increased Delivery Capacity
Transit duration decreased by 1.5 hours per route, yielding a 22% reduction in fleet fuel consumption. Truck payload capacity utilization climbed to 92%, enabling the business to fulfill 300 additional store orders daily without acquiring new vehicles.
"AI-powered fleet route optimization slashed operational fuel expenditures by 22% while elevating daily delivery capacity by 30%."
