The distribution of dairy products is a key factor affecting the distribution cost, delivery time and service level of dairy products. In order to improve the efficiency and reduce the costs, it is necessary to optimize the distribution path of the dairy products. In this paper, the distribution of a local dairy enterprise is taken as the research object. On the basis of analyzing the existing distribution path, the mathematical model of the distribution path is constructed, and the genetic algorithm is designed. Then the optimized distribution path is obtained through programming and solving by MATLAB. By comparing before and after optimization, it is found that after the optimization, the total distribution distance is shortened, and the transportation cost and fixed cost are reduced. In addition, the penalty cost is avoided. Therefore, a reasonable distribution path is of great significance for the enterprises to improve the efficiency, reduce the costs, shorten the delivery time and other indicators.
