Abstract

Bogota has a problem with food supplies framed by the inefficiency in the capillary distribution, raising the costs and creating difficulties for food access in the social strata 1 and 2. Therefore, the city´s mayor´s office created the Masterplan for supply and food security (PMASAB), which includes the construction of logistic platforms located strategically in selected locations in order to reduce the food handling and transportation costs. Therefore, a multi-stage model for food distribution, that allows to improve the efficiency of the logistics operation in four marginal areas of the city with the use of three platforms, was designed. In the first stage, the load allocations are determined to be distributed from each platform based on mixed integer mathematical programming, the second develops a heuristic model to determine the vehicle routing and the third the routing simulation was performed, getting the flexibility for this operation strategies.
