A Typology of Logistics Pooling in Supply Chains

Abstract

Since the beginning of the 2000s, logistics pooling initiatives have flourished. This article extends previous research in the area by proposing an integrated typology of logistics pooling in supply chains. We analyze 18 cases of logistics pooling, identifying four major types of pooling: club pooling, domination pooling, district pooling, and customs pooling. We conclude by making recommendations for organizations involved (large companies, SMEs, logistics service providers and local and national authorities).
