For the weekly supply of 10,000 units, how many trips to the West Coast are needed?

The distribution of these units would require full truck capacity transport to fill a warehouse in anticipation of demand and a warehouse management system

Since the finished goods are now manufactured on the West Coast. No Finished goods transportation is to be added. However, now the raw materials transportation needs to be accounted for.
