The attributes of the vehicle routing problem (VRP) are as many additional characteristics or constraints which aim to better take into account the specificities of real application cs. The variants of the VRP thus formed are the support of an extremely rich literature, comprising an immense variety of heuristics. This article constitutes an industrial application and an objective synthesis of successful and challenging heuristic concepts for time-windowed VRP problems. The purpose will be to minimize transport costs and determining the optimal number of trucks by applying a transport algorithm. The results show that the solution method should help to increase the competitiveness of transportation operations in this important economic sector.
