Heavy Cargo & B2B Logistics: Route Optimization for Electric Delivery Vans

Managing commercial B2B deliveries: optimizing multi-stop routes for electric 3-wheelers (E-rickshaws) and cargo vans delivering wholesale sacks.

While two-wheelers are ideal for small 5kg customer grocery bags, moving 500kg wholesale sacks of wheat, sugar, and crates of cooking oil requires commercial electric 3-wheelers (EV cargo tempos) and vans.

Payload-Aware Geospatial Dispatch

Routing heavy cargo vehicles through narrow Indian bazaar lanes requires specialized engineering:

  • **Road Width & Height Clearance Geofencing:** Prevents dispatching 3-wheelers into narrow 4-foot pedestrian-only bazaar alleys during daytime trading hours.
  • **Dynamic Weight Distribution Optimization:** Calculates vehicle center of gravity and battery consumption curves based on active cargo payload weight.
  • **Loading Dock Time Slot Allocation:** Schedules wholesale store drop-offs at exact staggered 15-minute intervals to eliminate delivery van traffic jams in front of shops.

Advanced commercial route planning ensures heavy goods move seamlessly across urban supply chains.
