Transport in value chains – its role, challenges and future development

The monograph „Transport w łańcuchach wartości” (Transport in Value Chains) by Professor Przemysław Borkowski, PhD offers a comprehensive analysis of transport as a crucial component shaping the performance of global value chains (GVCs). The author discusses the concept, structure and evolution of value chains, highlighting how transport supports value creation, coordination of production and distribution processes, and the competitiveness of firms operating within international networks. The book also addresses today’s major challenges, including digital transformation, supply chain disruptions and risk management, sustainability requirements, and the growing need for resilience in global logistics systems. By combining theoretical foundations with a forward-looking perspective, the publication serves as a valuable resource for researchers and students, as well as practitioners in logistics, freight transport and supply chain management.
