Abstract
In this investigation, the shortage at national level of tomato is solved, where its logistics is scarce in its supply chain towards the demanding states that do not cultivate or harvest small quantities. The 32 states of the Mexican Republic are contemplated. The methodology is based on modelling on linear programming as an analysis tool, where tomato claiming states and supplying producer states are identified, to later identify the supply connections with the calculation including the logistics of transport costs between these states. By analysing and applying the method, results are obtained that demonstrate the optimization of the amounts to be distributed among the states (equilibrium between supply and demand), where one or more supplying states can supply the demanding state, minimizing transportation costs within its supply chain. The model determines the optimal connections between bidder-consumer, allowing the design of a Distribution Network in Mexico optimizing the supply of logistics in the supply chain.
