Abstract: Abstract In the era of e-commerce and just-in-time production, an efficient supply of goods is more than ever a fundamental requirement for any supply chain. In this context, this paper summarizes the author’s dissertation about optimization in outbound logistics, which received the dissertation award of the German Operations Research Society (GOR) in the course of the OR conference 2019 in Dresden. The structure of the thesis is introduced, the investigated optimization problems are described, and the main findings are highlighted.
