Supply Chain Management in Tourism: A Bibliometric Analysis of Academic Trends Between 2020 and 2024
Abstract
Supply Chain Management (SCM) in tourism focuses on service production and distribution, emphasizing customer satisfaction, service quality, and timely delivery. This study analyzes 780 articles from 2020 to 2024 using bibliometric analysis, retrieved from the Web of Science database, and visualized with VOSViewer. Key research areas include environmental sciences, hospitality, leisure tourism, management, and sustainability. Articles are the most common document type, with SSCI, SCI-Expanded, and ESCI as leading indices. Co-authorship analysis highlights Kaiying and Qiang, while Hair, Henseler, Han, Fornell, and Zhang are the most cited authors. Frequently cited journals include Journal of Cleaner Production, Tourism Management, and Sustainability-Basel. Keywords such as "sustainability," "supply chain," and "COVID-19" dominate. Sustainability is the leading journal in bibliographic coupling, and China, the U.S., and the U.K. are top publishing countries. Although research on SCM in tourism is limited, academic interest is growing, providing valuable insights for future studies and the field's development.

Turizm Alanında Tedarik Zinciri Yönetimi: Bibliyometrik Analiz ile 2020-2024 Yılları Arasındaki Akademik Eğilimler
Abstract
Turizm sektöründe tedarik zinciri yönetimi, müşteri memnuniyeti, hizmet kalitesi ve zamanında teslimat gibi unsurların kritik olduğu bir süreçtir. Bu çalışma, 2020-2024 yılları arasında turizm sektöründe tedarik zinciri yönetimi üzerine yapılan akademik çalışmaları bibliyometrik analiz yöntemiyle incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Web of Science veri tabanında “supply chain” ve “tourism” anahtar kelimeleriyle taranan 780 makale, VOSViewer programı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular, en çok yayın yapılan alanların çevre bilimleri, konaklama, eğlence ve spor turizmi, yönetim ve yeşil sürdürülebilirlik olduğunu göstermektedir. Yayın türleri arasında makaleler ilk sırada yer alırken, SSCI, SCI-Expanded ve ESCI en çok kullanılan indekslerdir. Ortak yazar analizinde Kaiying ve Qiang, en fazla iş birliği yapan yazarlar olarak öne çıkmıştır. En çok atıf alan yazarlar arasında Hair, Henseler, Han, Fornell ve Zhang yer alırken, Journal of Cleaner Production, Tourism Management ve Sustainability-Basel en çok atıf yapılan dergilerdir. Anahtar kelime analizinde “sürdürülebilirlik”, “tedarik zinciri” ve “Covid-19” öne çıkmıştır. Ülke analizinde Çin, ABD ve İngiltere en fazla yayına sahip ülkeler olarak belirlenmiştir. Çalışma, turizm sektöründe tedarik zinciri yönetiminin gelişim alanlarını anlamak için önemli bir kaynak sunmaktadır.
