Your Delivery Vehicles

The recent report of the Harvard Bureau of Business Research presents some very import ant facts to the retailer.
 The two heaviest items in cost of operation are the sales cost and delivery expense.
 According to the report each salesman should be able to show record of minimum of S15,- 900 per year.
 In delivery cost there is an opportunity for saving in operations. Your vehcles-are they adding cost or reducing record cost? What is your initial cost? What is your up-keep? Does your delivery vehicle fit your needs? Much de- bends upon this, in keeping down your delivery cost.
 One dealer informs the writer that his up- keep for the year on one delivery rig Ca Ford) was in excess of S10 per month beside his de- preciation.
 Some dealers even assert ttat for short haul the horse drawn vehicle is still more economi- cal.
 The choice of your delivery vehicle deserves more than passing consideration. The Ford which is more universally in use than any other vehicle for grocery delivery, is not economical, as it consumes more oil and gas than many other light cars and is more often in the garage for repairs. This may be because of the uni versa misuse or abuse of the Ford.
 Recently other companies have developed commercial cars which are challenging the Ford as an economical car. notably the Over land.
 It is claimed that an Overland commercial car can be operated at a cost of less than four cents mile. included in this cost being oil, gas, upkeep and depreciation
 Delivery expense as reported by Harvard Bureau: Wages 1.S per cent; expense 10; other delivery cost 2.S per cent making total deliv- cry expense 5.6 per cent. This from total ex- pense of operation of 1S0 per cent, or nearly one-third of your total expense is your deliv- cry expense.
 This is one factor in your business that should have your careful consideration.
