Abstract	Transportation and distribution network are mandatory keys for the business expansion and successful; hence, numerous researches in improving transportation efficiency have been introduced. Our study introduces an alternative to improve the transportation efficiency as well as assist in decision making of management team. A case study of a small patisseries chain in which the main transportation characteristic is subjected to temperature sensitivity is introduced. This study can be categorized as vehicle routing and scheduling problem with time window constraints. A comparative study between two types of vehicle is conducted. The vehicle routing and scheduling are simulated in the various criteria. The result shows that motorcycle is more preferable for single supplier with six customers located in the metropolis. Motorcycle overcomes light truck in term of fixed cost, but yield slightly higher variable cost. However, when the number of customer increases, light truck becomes more preferable in term of vehicle capacity.
