Cleaner Logistics and Supply Chain

Aims & Scope

Cleaner Logistics and Supply Chain (CLSCN) is an international, transdisciplinary companion journal to the Journal of Cleaner Production focusing on the domain of green, sustainable, and circular logistics and supply chain management.

CLSCN serves as a platform for addressing and discussing how each paper contributes to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and to a zero-carbon society within the domain of cleaner logistics and supply chain management.

High quality contributions are welcome from both academics and professionals working in the field of logistics and supply chain management.

Methodologically, CLSCN covers the full range of empirical, conceptual, modeling, quantitative, and qualitative research studies.

All empirical studies should contribute to theory.

Application of technologies to achieve sustainability is within the journal's scope, but technology development alone are not research papers suitable for CLSCN.
