Abstract :This article explores the transformation of maritime supply chains, focusing on key capabilities, including technological adoption, risk management, sustainability initiatives, and collaboration in disruption management. Through an analysis of UNCTAD reports from 2019 to 2023, this study tracks the development of these capabilities in response to disruptions, notably the COVID-19 pandemic and the Suez Canal blockage. The findings highlight the critical role of digitalization, particularly the adoption of technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain to enhance risk management strategies and port efficiency. Simultaneously, the increasing emphasis on decarbonization and green initiatives reflects the growing integration of environmental sustainability in the maritime sector. Collaborations were found to be vital for fostering disruption management capabilities and operational stability. This research provides a comprehensive overview of how maritime supply chains have adapted to recent challenges and provides insights into the future of adaptive and sustainable maritime supply chain management.
