Innovation is one of the most impactful business development factors, both a source of competitive advantage and a source of non-market benefits through its contribution to individual and collective well-being. This contributed volume brings together studies of innovation in transport and logistics in Africa, an area of rapid development but still underserved and a source of challenges for organisations doing business in the region. The continent's development requires the creation of innovative, sustainable solutions for inclusive, virtuous growth that integrates the individual, the organisation and the external environment, which includes society, ecology and stakeholders. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of logistics, operations management, supply chain management, African business and infrastructure development in emerging economies.
