 Supply chain in the wake of COVID-19 - a bibliometric and content analysisGaurav Kumar Badhotiya, Leena Sachdeva and Gunjan Soni International Journal of Services and Operations Management, 2025, vol. 50, issue 1, 123-148 Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has immensely impacted the global supply chain. Although many research articles have been published in this field since 2020, the literature is still fragmented. Recognising this gap, this study provides a comprehensive analysis of literature published on COVID-19 and global supply chain management. The two-tier bibliometric and content analysis is performed to identify the key research themes and future research directions. A set of 273 articles published in the Scopus database during 2019 and 2021 (Q3) were considered for analysis. Further content analysis of co-citation analysis emphasises three research themes namely supply chain disruption, supply chain resilience, and control and mitigation strategies of COVID-19 outbreak. The findings highlighted that COVID-19 disruption can be minimised by information sharing, use of digital technology, and reconfiguration of supply chain. The outcome of this study led to the identification and analysis of the strategies, methodologies, and emerging focus areas for discussion. Keywords: COVID-19; supply chain; bibliometric analysis; content analysis.
