We checked. Sixteen systems, including every one you have been pitched.
Cost to serve, per customer
Driver time, fuel, the van's share of the day, pick labour, failed deliveries, credit notes and the cost of funding their terms — against the margin they actually yield. Then it tells you the minimum order value that would make them wash their face.

Routing that respects the real constraints
Van weight and cage space, chilled compartments, tail lifts, delivery windows, driver hours under UK or EU rules, and the fact that a van cannot leave before its wave is picked. It minimises vans first, because a van is £30k a year and eight miles is noise.
Only one competitor has a real optimiser, and it ignores chilled compartments
Catch weight, end to end
Ordered nominal, picked actual, invoiced on actual. Never averaged, because averaging is a straight margin leak on every lamb shoulder you sell.
Three of 16, and none of them also do traceability
Crates you actually get back
Issued and returned per customer, deposits charged and refunded, aged so the chase list writes itself.
Two of 16, both enterprise ERPs at ten times the price
