چکیده
The sustainable logistics and transportation studies constitute a primordial research axis in the enterprises’ governance. In the last years, many reflections and developments in logistics research have studied the economic and the environmental questions related to supply chain management, but only few of them consider sustainability in its totality. Moreover, in practice, city logistics systems conception and planning is currently following a sustainable approach. The aim of this paper is to start a reflection about the three dimensions of sustainable supply chain management (economic, environmental and social), and illustrate these concepts by the results of an experience’s comeback from a city logistics system, Cityporto (Padua, Italy).
