Andrew recently started an online business in the comfort of his own home.

Part of his daily


activities is organizing deliveries and dispatching products. This became a challenge for Andrew
since he is required to provide door-to-door delivery service for his customers’ convenience. Most of
his customers reside in the same city where he lives. Propose an optimum mode of transport/s and
line haul service/s that will enable him to execute his deliveries efficiently.

 Andrew may use motor carriers, particularly a motorbike, as his primary mode of transport.
This is a wise decision since his business is not yet established, and most of his customers
live in the city where he undertakes his business activities. In addition, he must set a
schedule for the dispatch of his products. For instance, he may include information on his
website that he only delivers every Friday just to set customers’ expectations.

An applicable line haul service for Andrew is dispersion since it will allow him to arrange all
the orders on a given week and have it delivered every Friday to multiple destinations.
Again, this is the best decision for cost saving since his customers mostly lived in the same
city.
