Benefits Analysis of Urban-Rural Joint Distribution

Joint distribution is the main development trend of urban and rural logistics distribution. In view of the lack of quantitative calculation and evaluation of the benefits of joint distribution between urban and rural areas, this paper defines the benefits as changes in the distribution indicators caused by the changes of distribution routes before and after joint distribution, and takes vehicle mileage, vehicle loading rate, distribution time, and distribution cost as the benefit indicators to construct the benefit calculation model. Finally, a case study is illustrated to calculate and evaluate the benefits of joint distribution by using the calculation model.
