Fresh Product Delivery
The trend today is to increase the need for fresh product delivery from traders, artisans and restaurants. In the Paris area, the latter are delivered 1 to 3 times a week on average.
Manufacturers and wholesalers are currently developing numerous services around delivery in order to meet the needs of their customers, who sometimes now enforce delivery frequencies and transit times.
Kardinal helps you easily plan tours that meet your customers’ constraints, while preserving your margin.
