For the overheads in this example, an OPD (orders/day) of 30 is sufficient to maintain the route in
flow. This can be further made profitable by switching to Electric vehicle and further enhancing the
route. An OPD of 30 is not a small number to achieve keeping in mind that a family might order 2ce
a week, but once an OPD of 30 is achieved, every order after that is certain profit, as you have
recovered all your fixed expenses.
