Sažetak

From the macroeconomic point of view, distribution is the process of goods relocation from producers to end customers. According to the microeconomic approach, distribution is more identified with the sales and delivery process, and the main tasks of the distribution centre include the storage of goods owned by suppliers and distributing them to recipients according to the specific instructions of the goods’ owner. This article presents costs reduction and productivity improvement issues in warehouses and distribution centres. The objective of this article is to define order picking problems and to choose the best route for the operator using real simulation and optimisation.
