Abstract
Abstract – Industry 4.0 has transformed the logistics sector in Latin America, especially in Brazil, Mexico and Colombia, through the integration of advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence. This has improved efficiency and competitiveness, although there are challenges such as lack of infrastructure. Digitalization and automation have increased productivity, and it is suggested to invest in technology, train staff and encourage collaboration in the supply chain to maximize these benefits and move towards sustainable development in the region. This qualitative study, based on the PRISMA methodology, analyzes how the relationship between Industry 4.0 and productivity in the logistics sector is key to sustainable development in Latin America. Keywords – Industry 4.0, productivity, logistics companies, Latin America, interconnectivity
