Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated digitalization in logistics and stimulated the adoption of new technologies. Research shows that digital transformation is essential for logistics in Bulgaria, but the lack of qualified personnel can be a significant barrier to the progress. As digitalization increases, companies face challenges and opportunities in training their employees, particularly those over 50, who often lack the necessary digital skills. The report aims to explore the needs and opportunities for developing the digital skills of logistics personnel over 50 in Bulgaria and highlights the importance of specialized training. This study reveals the need for skill development to meet future challenges in logistics. Training should focus on both basic and specific digital skills, including working with new technologies and management systems.
