With the rapid development of e-commerce, logistics distribution, as a crucial link in the supply chain, directly impacts enterprise costs and customer satisfaction. This paper focuses on the problem of optimizing logistics distribution routes, aiming to reduce transportation costs and shorten delivery times. A mathematical model is established for this purpose. An improved ant colony algorithm is introduced to solve the model. Through strategies such as adaptively adjusting the pheromone evaporation coefficient and introducing heuristic information to optimize the transition probability, the search ability of the algorithm is enhanced. Simulation experiments are carried out using the data from actual logistics distribution cases, and a comparative analysis with traditional algorithms is conducted to verify the superiority of the improved ant colony algorithm in solving the problem of optimizing logistics distribution routes, thus providing effective methodological support for logistics enterprises to improve their operational efficiency.
