📄 Abstract
The paper examines the role of gender inclusion in supply chain development in India. It points out the role of empowering women in supply chains in promoting both gender equity and economic development. Policy measures notwithstanding, female representation in most Indian supply chains, particularly in leadership, remains very low. Based on 50 peer-reviewed papers using the TCCM framework, the review identifies the drivers, impediments, and the supporting models of gender-inclusive practices. The implication is that supply chains that are gender-inclusive are more resilient, innovative, and socially impactful. The agriculture, MSME, and manufacturing sectors give us examples of challenges and best practices. The paper concludes with research directions and recommendations to bring about a more inclusive Indian supply chain future.
