This paper proposes a polynomial-time exact algorithm for the - depot capacitated vehicle routing problem on a tree for fixed ( - depot CVRPT for short), which involves dispatching a fixed number of capacitated vehicles in depots on a tree-shaped graph to serve customers with the objective of minimizing total distance traveled. The polynomial-time exact algorithm improves the 2-approximation algorithm when is a constant.
