Investigating the state of autonomous vehicles on supply chain: a literature review

This study focuses on the analysis of the economic impact of autonomous vehicles (AVs) on beverages and food supply chain costs in Europe. AVs are going to have huge potential impacts both on supply chains and transport. Thus, this research studies how AVs can help resolve existing logistical challenges by boosting efficiency, minimizing operational costs, enhancing supply chain resilience, and reducing delivery time. Through secondary data analysis and the economic model’s assessment, the benefits and cost savings that AVs can provide to businesses are measured. The findings of this research are intended to inform industry leaders, lawmakers, and academics about the transformative potential of AVs implementation and their future impact on supply chain management in Europe.
