Dr. Apostolos Zisimopoulos is a leading scholar at the intersection of franchising, supply chain management, and digital transformation. His research focuses on how digitization reshapes franchising supply chains and drives measurable improvements in firm performance. In his most cited work, "Digitisation of franchising supply chain impact on franchisor performance: a longitudinal case study of a coffee retail chain" (2024, 7 citations), Dr. Zisimopoulos provides a groundbreaking empirical analysis of how digital tools enhance operational efficiency and profitability in franchise networks. This study is particularly notable for addressing a critical gap in supply chain literature, which has long overlooked the unique dynamics of franchising systems. By combining rigorous longitudinal data with real-world case insights, his work offers actionable frameworks for practitioners and researchers alike. Dr. Zisimopoulos’s contributions are shaping how scholars understand the strategic role of digitization in franchise ecosystems, and his research continues to influence both academic discourse and industry practice. His work is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of franchising and supply chain innovation.
