In this paper, we provide a focused patent landscape analysis of emerging technologies in smart logistics. Our analysis spans 2013 to 2022 and examines the patenting trends, major players, and key technologies such as IoT, blockchain, big data, and cloud computing. The findings indicate that LG and Qualcomm are leaders in this domain, with implications for smaller market players and new entrants. We also discuss the potential challenges these technologies face in real-world logistics settings and highlight the need for industry stakeholders to adopt these innovations to maintain competitive advantage.
