<![CDATA[This paper introduces a novel approach to the Green Vehicle Routing Problem (GVRP) by integrating multiple trips, heterogeneous vehicles, and time windows, specifically applied to the distribution of bakery products. The primary objective of the proposed model is to optimize route planning and vehicle allocation, aiming to minimize transportation costs and carbon emissions while maximizing product quality upon delivery to retailers. Utilizing a Genetic Algorithm (GA), the model demonstrates its effectiveness in achieving near-optimal solutions that balance economic, environmental, and quality-focused goals. Empirical results reveal a total transportation cost of Rp. 856,458.12, carbon emissions of 365.43 kgCO2e, and an impressive average product quality of 99.90% across all vehicle trips. These findings underscore the capability of the model to efficiently navigate the complexities of real-world logistics while maintaining high standards of product delivery. The proposed GVRP model serves as a valuable tool for industries seeking sustainable and cost-effective distribution strategies, with implications for broader advancements in supply chain management.]]>
