Sustainable last-mile logistics emerge as a critical focus in the transition toward greener, more efficient supply chains. As e-commerce demand increases and urban populations grow, supply chains present unique environmental, economic, and operational challenges. Rapid innovations like electric delivery, micro-fulfillment centers, cargo bikes, and data-driven routing reshape what sustainable distribution looks like in larger cities. Combined with evolving policy frameworks that balance commercial needs with environmental goals, these developments highlight the complex interplay between technology, business models, and regulation in building a more sustainable last-mile ecosystem. Sustainable Last-Mile Logistics: Challenges, Innovations, and Policy Perspectives explores sustainable innovations, government policy, and technology-driven solutions that transform last-mile logistics in emerging markets. It combines theoretical frameworks with case studies to offer a comprehensive academic and practical resource to address distribution challenges, business innovation strategies, and policy integration. This book covers topics such as green business, circular economy, and environmental science, and is a useful resource for business owners, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
