“…Previously, logistics has been considered a 'dark continent' with many benefits and advantages that businesses have not yet exploited (Havenga, 2018). Blanco and Sheffi (2017) have stressed the role of logistics in ensuring the availability of material requirements, i.e., raw materials, inventory, semi-finished products, and finished products in the production cycle. Therefore, logistics advances large production capacity and commercial growth.…”

Logistics service providers (LSPs) are experiencing strong growth in recent times, especially in some developing countries like Vietnam. However, the development of LSPs is affected by many factors both internal and external. This paper aims to analyze the implications for the current status of LSPs. The authors conducted a survey for LSP in Central Vietnam. The survey results show that factors such as digital transformation, government policies, and infrastructure are the factors that affect the current situation of LSPs. Based on the research results, the article also makes some policy suggestions for the government to improve the policy mechanism and encourage the development of LSPs in Central Vietnam in particular and in Vietnam as a whole.

“…While supply chain management scholars who embrace cross‐functional problems are poised to lead these efforts, complex issues merit expertise in fields like advanced technologies, environmental sciences, organizational behavior, and political science, to name a few, as the specific problem requires. The Stank and Goldsby (2000) framework proved instrumental in influencing scholarship beyond the confines of transportation and logistics efficiency, as the article is cited in problem areas ranging from knowledge management (e.g., Lin et al 2002) to humanitarian logistics (e.g., Vaillancourt 2016) and green logistics (e.g., Blanco and Sheffi 2017). We hope that the modernized framework can bolster inquiry from within and beyond the supply chain realm considering transportation’s far‐reaching implications.…”

At the turn of the century, firms struggled to make transportation decisions in increasingly integrated supply chains that routinely stretched around the world. In “A Framework for Transportation Decision Making in an Integrated Supply Chain” (Supply Chain Management: An International Journal 5 [2]: 71–77) T. P. Stank and T. J. Goldsby proposed an original transportation decision-making framework to address the need. The framework is cited over 250 times in the academic literature and referenced by firms seeking to optimize cost-service tradeoffs in an environment characterized by higher levels of market freedoms, service innovation, and supply chain collaboration. Since the year 2000, though, the digital revolution, customer expectations, and supply chain resilience concerns have given rise to new demands for transportation decision-making, with operations residing in a hyper-integrated and further globally entrenched state. Therefore, we revisit Stank and Goldsby’s original framework to review major transportation decision areas and devise contemporary mechanisms to address the modern business environment. Our framework highlights the rapid and interdependent nature of today’s corporate transportation decisions to help firms tackle current business needs and long-term strategic interests. We also seek to illuminate prospective avenues for research endeavor.

“…McKinnon et al (2015) proposed a framework for GRL that effectively illustrates the relationship between logistics activities and their environmental impact. Blanco and Sheffi (2017) demonstrated that GRL involves the identification, evaluation, and mitigation of environmental effects associated with logistics services. Due to diverse perspectives taken by researchers, various definitions of GRL exist.…”

The logistics sector plays a crucial role in supporting various aspects of the economy, making it an essential part of a nation's development. However, this sector also contributes to environmental pollution through various emissions. The adoption of environmentally friendly logistics practices presents a promising solution to mitigate adverse environmental impacts. This study aims to investigate the influence of economic growth, green innovation, foreign direct investment, transport emissions, renewable energy, and trade openness on green logistics in both Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS) and Gulf countries from 1992 to 2020. This study used an advanced panel approach to obtain robust results, considering cross‐sectional dependency and slope heterogeneity. The cross‐sectionally augmented autoregressive distributed lag method was employed to analyze long and short‐run estimations. Our findings reveal that in Gulf countries, both transport emissions and foreign direct investment have a negative impact on green logistics. In the BRICS countries, economic growth, transport emissions, trade openness, renewable energy, and green innovation have a positive impact on green logistics. The study proposes several recommendations to improve logistics development in both groups of nations and promote sustainability. To achieve carbon neutrality, it is important to adopt green logistics, promote green investments, and support renewable energy, innovation, and sustainable growth.
