Summary/Abstract: The distribution of goods is related to significant transport costs. Reducing them is essential for the success of every company. This paper proposes a model for minimizing the transport costs of a small company engaged in distribution activities. The model is based on the mixed integer linear programming problem. The optimal criteria is the minimum of the traveled kilometers. The solution of the model is a plan for using the vehicles by routes, objects and number of courses. The linear optimization leads to a fully deterministic solution.
