Abstract

Blockchain technology is rapidly transforming global supply chain management by introducing new levels of transparency, traceability, and operational efficiency. This narrative review aims to evaluate the impact of blockchain integration on supply chain transparency across various sectors. Using a literature-based approach, studies were retrieved from leading databases such as Scopus, Google Scholar, and Web of Science, focusing on applications in food, pharmaceuticals, logistics, and sustainability. The results indicate that blockchain enhances traceability and transparency through decentralized ledgers, enabling real-time data access and reducing fraud, errors, and inefficiencies. Case studies show significant improvements in product tracking, cost reduction, and consumer trust, particularly when combined with technologies like IoT and smart contracts. However, challenges persist, including high implementation costs, limited technical skills, and unequal adoption between large firms and SMEs. Systemic issues such as regulatory uncertainty and lack of stakeholder collaboration further hinder implementation. The discussion highlights the role of public policy and data governance in facilitating adoption and calls for collaborative ecosystems that support blockchain deployment. Limitations in geographic scope, methodological design, and long-term impact assessment were identified, suggesting avenues for future research. Ultimately, blockchain holds significant promise for building sustainable, secure, and efficient supply chains, provided that structural barriers are addressed through targeted policy and inclusive innovation strategies.

Abstract

This narrative review explores innovation in green logistics, covering technologies, logistics models, regulations, consumer behavior, and global implementation. It highlights the environmental urgency driving sustainable logistics and identifies key research gaps. Using a systematic method, peer-reviewed articles were analyzed to reveal that technologies like electric vehicles, hydrogen fuel, biodiesel, AI, IoT, and blockchain improve both environmental and operational outcomes. Sustainable models such as multimodal transport, circular logistics, and collaborative distribution reduce emissions and enhance efficiency. The review emphasizes the role of supportive policies, financial incentives, and stakeholder collaboration, with case studies from Germany, China, India, and Malaysia illustrating successful integrated approaches. However, barriers like limited funding, poor infrastructure, and institutional resistance persist. The study calls for cohesive policies, stronger private sector roles, and interdisciplinary research to support the global shift toward sustainable logistics
