Industry Challenges & Solutions

How Pegasus addresses specific distribution friction

Core Operating Bottlenecks

  • Perishable shelf-life constraints requiring strict FIFO and lot-level departure timing
  • Narrow morning receiving windows at restaurants and retail grocers
  • High volume of delivery-time invoice adjustments, split crates, and returns
  • Cash and cheque collection reconciliation at the point of delivery

The Pegasus Solution

Perishable-Aware Route Optimization

Google OR-Tools solver respects shelf-life priorities, temperature compartments, and store receiving windows to sequence morning drops.

Point-of-Delivery Invoice Adjustments

Drivers record rejected crates or damaged items instantly in the mobile app, recalculating the final invoice and payment balance on the spot.

Cash-on-Delivery (COD) Treasury Matching

Drivers log cash and check collections into the driver app, locking ledger entries that warehouse treasury verifies during end-of-day checkout.
