Abstract
The challenges of humanitarian logistics have number of key aspects that clearly differentiate them from those of the commercial world (Tatham and Christopher, 2014). During emergencies various aid organizations often face significant problems of transporting large amounts of many different commodities including food, clothing, medicine, medical supplies, machinery, and personnel from different points of origin to different destinations in the disaster areas.
