Next generation route optimisation for sustainable dairy transport

19/05/2026

A lot of discussion around dairy supply chains focuses on processing capacity, inventory and commodity markets.

But transport operations are often where complexity shows up first.

Changing milk volumes.
Plant constraints.
Driver availability.
Last-minute schedule changes.
Pressure to reduce cost without impacting service.

These are operational challenges that require more than static planning tools.

At OptaHaul, we work with dairy processors and cooperatives to improve how milk movements are planned, scheduled and managed day to day - helping teams respond faster and operate more efficiently across complex networks.

The operational side of dairy logistics deserves better tools.

Milk transportation is becoming more complex, not less.

More data. More variability. More pressure on cost, utilisation and service levels.

Yet many collection and dispatch operations still rely heavily on spreadsheets, manual coordination and static plans.

At OptaHaul, we’re focused on building software that helps dairy logistics teams plan, optimise and adapt in real time : from farm pickup through to plant delivery.

Not just visibility.
Not just tracking.
Operational optimisation that supports better decisions every day.

If you're reviewing how your dairy transport operation is planned and managed, we’d be happy to talk.

Starting later today:

Managing Milk Haulage for Maximum Efficiency
3pm IST / 10am ET / 9am CT / 7am PT

A short 30-minute session on how to use planned vs actual routes to identify where efficiency is being lost - from tanker utilisation to time losses and haulier performance.

If you’re involved in milk supply chain planning or logistics, still time to join:

Set up and ready for day one of ADPI in Chicago.

Gary Gallagher is on tabletop #13 — come over for a chat about reducing cost and emissions in the dairy supply chain through optimized milk collection and intelligent load to plant scheduling.

24/04/2026

The dairy industry loses millions every year to empty miles, bad routes, and spreadsheets held together with hope.

We're at ADPI Chicago next week to do something about it.

We will be at Booth #13, 26–28 April. Come find us!

We're at the DTAS Annual Conference in Warwick today 🇬🇧

Kevin McSweeney is on the OptaHaul stand - come and say hello if you're attending.

Happy to show you how milk hauliers and co-ops are using OptaHaul to:
✅ Cut annual mileage by 20%+
✅ Halve manual planning time
✅ Run unlimited what-if scenarios to be prepared for future changes

See you there.

Most milk transport operations know if the milk got to the plant.

Far fewer know whether it was done efficiently.

When you compare planned routes with what actually happened, you often uncover under-filled tankers, unnecessary miles, time losses, and big differences in performance between hauliers.

Next Tuesday we’re running a short 30-minute webinar on how dairy transport teams can use optimisation not just to plan routes, but to measure and improve haulier performance.

A busy and productive day yesterday for the OptaHaul team at the IMHA Annual Convention in Dallas.

It was great to meet so many milk haulers, processors and industry partners, and to discuss the opportunities to improve dairy transport through better routing, scheduling and dispatch.

Looking forward to more great conversations on the final day today.

14/04/2026

We’re all set up and ready for the IMHA Annual Convention in Dallas tomorrow.

Looking forward to more great conversations with milk haulers, processors and dairy industry leaders about how routing, scheduling and dispatch can help improve dairy transport performance.

If you’re attending, stop by and say hello to Gary and Kevin at the OptaHaul stand.

Team OptaHaul is on the move again next week, this time its Dallas, Texas 🇺🇸

and Kevin McSweeney will be at the IMHA Annual Convention, April 13–15, an event we look forward to every year. There's no better room in North America to connect with the people who keep dairy moving.

If you're there and want to talk milk haulage, optimized routing & load scheduling, or just catch up over a coffee then come find us.

See you in Dallas. 🥛
