Industry 5.0 represents a transition from the machine-centred approach of Industry 4.0, highlighting the importance of cooperation between humans and advanced technologies to attain sustainable and people-oriented results. This approach strives to incorporate human elements back into the industrial ecosystem, promoting sustainable development, social acceptability, and environmental oversight. Advanced technologies such as human-centric AI, Green IoT, sustainable blockchain, cyber-physical systems, digital twins, and smart sensors have the potential to support efficient food supply chain management. These innovations can enhance resilience, sustainability, and performance while keeping the costs low. This study conducts a comprehensive analysis of the factors acting as motivators for implementing Industry 5.0 technologies by companies. The drivers were assessed and prioritised using the Fuzzy-Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP). The study highlights the importance of supply chain resilience as the top priority, followed by need for sustainability and cost savings. This research emphasizes the significant impact of Industry 5.0 on developing robust and eco-friendly food supply chains, highlighting the crucial role of integrating human-centred technology.
