Supply Chain Management (SCM) is the management of the complete flow of goods from their original manufacturing location to their consumption point. It includes tracking the shipment, managing inventories, reverse logistics, overseeing production, warehousing, boosting sales, and enhancing distribution. Thus, the supply chain plays an integral role in the success of the manufacturing and retail business. Between 2022 and 2027, the supply chain industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.72%.
The top trends of SCM in 2022 are technological advancement and digitisation, tech-enabled remote sourcing using technologies like AI, Virtual Reality and Blockchain, usage of drones for last-mile deliveries, energy-efficient smart warehouses, and usage of greener transportation methods. As per Technavio, due to increasing manufacturing and government reforms, the third-party logistics market in India is expected to grow by $10.74 billion from 2020 to 2025 growing at a CAGR of 8%.
