Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Climate change, resource scarcity, and social responsibility challenges have intensified the emphasis on sustainable supply chain management and logistics. Conventional supply chains are under heightened examination due to their substantial resource usage, emissions, and ecological effects. All of this is leading to a transition towards models that emphasize sustainable practices. This Special Issue aims at enhancing both theoretical and practical comprehension of sustainable supply chain management in relation to sustainable development and operations. In accordance with the journal's focus, it aims to connect academic research with industry practices, investigating how sustainable supply chain management can improve competitiveness while reducing and minimizing ecological impacts. This Issue invites submissions that demonstrate interdisciplinary research, linking environmental science, operations research, and economics to tackle the complex challenges in sustainable logistics and supply chains.
Specific topics of the Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
Green and circular supply chains; digitalization and sustainable supply chains; risk management and resilience in sustainable supply chain management.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
