- Abstract
Distribution logistics is an inseparable part of a logistics chain. It starts at the moment of a finished product supply to a warehouse of finished products and ends at the moment of its delivery to a final customer. Only a minimal amount of products is supplied directly to the final customer. It is more common to supply the product to the customer indirectly using several distribution degrees. While the product is supplied to the final customer, it is necessary to encompass a whole range of logistics activities. The objective of the article is to highlight the possibility of solving the problem of routing according to Clarke-Wright´s method. It is one of a large number of heuristic methods which solves the problem of vehicle routing.
