Models for Building Logistics Chains in Agribusiness

Summary/Abstract: Characteristic of Bulgarian agriculture is the presence of many, mostly small and medium-sized agricultural enterprises, occupying an insignificant market share, which operate in the highly competitive market of agricultural products. This fragmentation challenges agricultural holdings to improve their competitiveness and imposes a realistic orientation towards market innovations, including the formation of logistics chains. Building and improving logistics models is essential for optimizing business processes and generating added value in the sector. In this regard, the main research goal is to construct logistics models applicable in agribusiness. The research defends the thesis that the construction of logistics chains is a market reaction of the business for effective utilization of available resources and generation of added value, contributing to cohesion among the regions in Bulgaria. The results of the study can be systematized in the following areas. First. Based on the surveyed 212 business organizations from different business sectors and 47 agricultural companies that support Internet platforms in carrying out their activities, the main problems facing the business have been outlined and good logistics practices have been identified. Second. Based on a benchmarking study, the strengths and key problems related to logistics in the analyzed organizations were identified. Third. Applicable in agribusiness models have been constructed for the leading sectors of logistics - Transport, Warehousing and Processing and Finishing, depending on the capacity of the organization.
