The logistics and supply chain industry, which is embracing gender diversity, offers diverse professional and technological opportunities for women, with government initiatives aimed at providing equal opportunities and empowering women in the field.
The logistics, transport, and supply chain industries, once resistant to women in the workforce, have begun embracing gender diversity with positive results.
According to a recent report by Gartner, cited by Globalia Logistics Network, women made up 41% of the supply chain workforce in 2021, with 15% of women in leadership roles within companies. This trend highlights the positive impact of gender diversity in the logistics industry.
