N2 - This research focuses on the delivery of fresh fruits and veggies via a third-party carrier. Despite the fact that the major concern is transportation, a different fitness function was presented to maximize the transporter’s revenues by taking into account specific constraints. The major goal of this study is to figure out how much vegetables and fruit should be bought in order to transport them to various locations at the highest potential profit. Traditional problem-solving techniques are used to address the issue. Furthermore, the simplex approach used allows for the identification of restrictions and the determination of the best solution to the issue that meets transportation needs while also generating the most profit. Overall, the findings show that the greatest profit that can be made in a single trip is $1,840.00, fulfilling three distinct firms’ requirements. Research has discussed several ways to solve maximization and transport problems. Nevertheless, this research views them as two separate elements since the transportation method is normally used for minimization. Hence, both this method and the simplex method are coupled to maximize resources.
