The review reveals SSCM as a complex and nuanced arena, influenced by a multiplicity of factors including regulatory policies, technological advancements, stakeholder pressures, and organizational culture. Despite substantial progress, significant knowledge gaps persist, particularly concerning the global South and the integration of Industry 4.0 technologies. The paper concludes with recommendations for future research and practice.
