Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the critical role of logistics systems in fostering sustainable tourism development. It identifies key logistics strategies that optimize operational processes, minimize environmental footprints, and enhance community engagement within the tourism sector. Methodology: Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, this research integrates qualitative and quantitative data collection. Primary data is obtained through surveys and interviews with tourism operators, logistics managers, and local community members, enabling a thorough examination of logistics strategies that promote sustainable tourism. Results: Findings indicate that optimizing logistics systems substantially contributes to sustainable tourism by reducing operational costs and waste. Key outcomes include the development of alternative transport systems with minimal carbon footprints, the effective management of natural resource supply chains to support local economies, and improved technology management for real-time decision-making. Conclusions: The study highlights the essential role of logistics systems in enhancing the sustainability of tourism activities. By refining logistics practices, stakeholders can enhance business operations while preserving ecological balance and supporting social well-being. The proposed logistics model offers a practical framework for embedding social responsibility into the tourism economy, thereby facilitating the advancement of sustainable ecological tourism. This research provides valuable insights for stakeholders aiming to foster sustainable tourism growth.
