Value of Digitization in the Supply Chain and the Role of Logistics in Surviving Covid-19

Abstract

Logistics can make or break the promise of digital marketing, on line shopping and even the current brick and mortar shopping experience. Rising to the digitization challenge in transportation and logistics opens big opportunities in optimizing processes and capturing real time information to enhance transparency and increase customer orders. In the current environment, where less people go out to buy their needs and more people do on line shopping due to the hassles of COVID19 scare and health protocols, logistics thrives to co-exist with the virus.
