In 2025, the supply chain is evolving in an increasingly complex environment shaped by geopolitical disruptions, environmental pressure, and heightened regulatory demands. These dynamics are forcing companies to adapt quickly and strategically. Logistics is no longer just about operational efficiency—it has become a key lever for compliance, security, and sustainability. To anticipate what lies ahead, it is essential to understand the major shifts redefining the supply chain landscape in 2025, and more broadly, the future of supply chain management.
The Supply Chain in 2025: Greener by Regulatory Design
ESG Standards: Toward More Responsible Logistics
The gradual implementation of the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) requires large companies to report on their environmental and social impacts. This shift compels all stakeholders—including logistics providers—to incorporate clear ESG metrics into their operations. Key levers now include reducing CO₂ emissions, optimizing packaging, and managing returns responsibly.
Flow Optimization and Resource Sharing
Strategies like flow pooling and smart planning significantly help reduce the carbon footprint. Digital tools play a central role in this shift. Collaborative TMS platforms such as Click & Track by Interlog Solutions, for example, optimize transport routes, monitor environmental performance KPIs, and steer transport plans with a sustainability-first approach.
Transitioning Infrastructure
Eco-certified warehouses, fleets powered by alternative fuels, and low-energy equipment are no longer optional—they are becoming industry standards. These investments in green infrastructure are crucial to meeting both distributor and consumer expectations.
Cybersecurity and GDPR—The New Normal for Logistics Systems
Cybersecurity: Reinforced Requirements
With the introduction of the EU’s NIS2 Directive and the Cyber Resilience Act, cybersecurity obligations for logistics players have been significantly tightened. Management platforms, in particular, must now demonstrate robust resilience against cyber threats.
In this context, Interlog Solutions is renewing its ISO 27001:2022 certification in 2025—an acknowledgment of its high standards in information security, covering both its own infrastructure and the solutions it delivers to clients.
Personal Data and Traceability
GDPR compliance remains a central concern, especially in the handling of transport, customs, and commercial data. Solutions like Transware provide centralized, secure shipment management, ensuring native compliance with regulatory requirements.
Customs Undergoing Full Digital Transformation
A More Technical Customs Environment
Customs procedures are becoming increasingly complex and technical, driven by the growth of international e-commerce and new trade tensions. Regimes such as Delta-I, Delta-G, Gamma2, and EMCS are now being rolled out across Europe, requiring full digitalization of customs operations.
Automation and Compliance
Tools like Cosmos cover all customs-related needs: special procedures, materials accounting, excise duties, electronic document management (GED), and more. This automation helps reduce the risk of error, accelerate processes, and secure operations in a fast-changing legal environment.
The supply chain in 2025 is navigating an era of accelerated global transition, marked by ever-increasing environmental, regulatory, and digital demands. Recent shifts in the global economic balance are amplifying this momentum. In response, businesses must develop logistics operations that are more agile, secure, and responsible. With trusted solutions like those from Interlog Solutions, they can turn constraints into opportunities, structure their transformation, and strengthen long-term performance.
