Abstract
By applying the solutions and technologies of Industry 4.0 in the field of logistics,the concept of Logistics 4.0 was developed. On the other hand Circular Economy (CE) is amodel of production and consumption that ensures sustainable growth over time. Thesubject of this paper is to rank the main Logistics 4.0 based CE interest areas within the agrifood sector. The aim is to determine the areas which has the greatest potential for furtherdevelopment and should thus be in focus of the future planning. This is a multi-criteriadecision making (MCDM) problem. For solving it a hybrid MCDM model combining theAnalytical Hierarchy Proces (AHP) method for establishing the criteria weights, and theComprehensive distance-Based RAnking (COBRA) method for the final ranking of thealternatives, is proposed. The results indicate that the most important CE interest areas areReuse/Remanufacturing/Recycle, Supply Chain Management and Product LifecycleManagement.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
