About

Yousef Nazih Diab is a logistics and supply chain researcher whose work addresses critical challenges in modern e-commerce fulfillment. His primary research areas include last-mile delivery optimization, sustainable logistics, and urban freight transportation. Diab’s most influential contribution is his comprehensive 2023 study on innovative last-mile delivery solutions, which has already accumulated 86 citations—a remarkable achievement for recent work. This paper systematically examines emerging concepts, practices, and challenges in last-mile logistics, from drone deliveries to crowd-shipping models, while providing actionable future directions for both practitioners and researchers. The study’s rapid citation growth reflects its timely relevance as e-commerce continues its post-pandemic expansion. Diab’s work is particularly notable for bridging theoretical frameworks with practical implementation strategies, offering insights that help logistics companies navigate the tension between customer expectations for speed and the operational complexities of urban delivery. His research serves as an essential reference for scholars studying supply chain innovation and for industry professionals seeking evidence-based solutions to the “last-mile problem”—the most expensive and inefficient segment of the delivery process.
