- Abstract
As an innovative business model, agricultural products crowd logistics (APCL) is emerging rapidly. The focus of this paper is to carry out a literature review on APCL grounded in literature of crowd logistics (CL) and agricultural products logistics (APL), and then provides an agenda for future research. The research areas of CL focus on innovative business model, operational mechanism and value creation in urban area or cities, while researchers in the field of APL focus on logistics facility and equipment, operation mode, optimization of path planning, and, finally, logistics assessment. We propose the first conceptual definition of APCL. Potential topics, possible research questions, combined with relating research methods are provided for future research in order to deepen knowledge about APCL phenomenon.
