Abstract

Distribution is one of the key activities in the operations of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises
(MSMEs) because it directly affects operational costs and business competitiveness. Some
MSMEs, such as Dapur Mama, still determine distribution patterns based on habitual practices
without quantitative calculations, which may lead to cost inefficiencies. This study aims to optimize
the distribution cost of Keripik Pisang Jawara products using a transportation model approach.
The method applied is Integer Linear Programming (ILP), solved with the assistance of LINGO
software. Research data were obtained through interviews with the MSME management, including
warehouse capacity, demand at each destination, and unit distribution costs. The results show that
the transportation model can determine an optimal distribution pattern that minimizes total
distribution costs without violating capacity and demand constraints. The optimal solution yields
a minimum total distribution cost of 20,940 cost units. Therefore, the ILP-based transportation
model is proven effective in improving distribution cost efficiency and can serve as a decisionsupport
tool for MSMEs.
