Last-Mile Delivery

Last-mile delivery is the final leg of the supply chain — moving goods from a local hub or warehouse to the buyer's door.

The last mile is often the most complex and costly part of delivery, because it involves many individual drop-offs rather than bulk transport. It is also the part the customer sees most directly, so its reliability shapes the whole buying experience.

Control of the last mile — through an owned delivery fleet rather than outsourced couriers — lets a supplier commit to and be accountable for delivery timing and handling. Lapasar operates its own fleet across Peninsular Malaysia, giving direct control of this final step.
