Resumen
A framework to analyze the last mile logistics practice in Lima, Peru is suggested. For this
purpose, consumer behavior has been studied in three districts, each with a different
socioeconomic level. The analysis carried out matches with five indicators: i) shop inventory, ii)
traffic count, iii), street data (roads and regulations), iv) delivery tracking and v) disruptions. This
study suggests how to identify logistics practices in each of the three districts, allows to create a
logistics profile, let users identify disruption causes and, finally, to suggest some solutions based
on this research that can be used in Lima and other cities. This paper aims to contribute with a
general understanding of the city of Lima regarding the way logistics practices are developed.
This approach is the basis to suggest policies that could make companies more efficient and to
improve the logistical costs in the city, which will bring benefits for the inhabitant
