last-mile transport
Last-mile transport refers to the final leg of a delivery process, where goods or passengers are transported from a local hub or distribution center to their final destination, such as a customer's home or office. It is often the most complex and costly part of delivery networks because it involves navigating densely populated or tricky areas without a fixed route. Efficient last-mile transport improves delivery speed, reduces costs, and enhances customer satisfaction by ensuring packages reach customers promptly and accurately. It is a crucial focus area in logistics, especially with the rise of e-commerce and urban mobility solutions.
