The mathematical optimization model proposed in this chapter represents the problem of transportation of perishable products which aims to minimize costs and optimize transportation times and costs. Reduction of the time of transportation of perishable products increases the likelihood of delivering fresh products and minimizes economic losses. Transportation time and temperature suitable for the conservation of the product are priorities in this type of problem because the product is transported in time reduces the probability that the product will be exposed to extreme conditions that favor its decomposition. To check the feasibility of the model, this study proposes a set of instances subject to an application obtained a series of solutions that are analyzed to identify if there is a feasible solution.
