Abstract

Blockchain has become one of the crucial technologies that are applied in various fields. However, the application of Blockchain technology in logistics businesses in Vietnam is uncommon and challenging. In this context, our study provides theoretical evaluations and practical analyses for the application of Blockchain technology in the logistics industry. Based on the development of a unified theoretical model of technology acceptance and use (UTAUT) combined with the TOE model, the study identifies the factors that influence the application of Blockchain by individuals in logistics enterprises in Vietnam. Using SPSS and AMOS tools to analyze 508 survey data collected from logistics businesses, the research team makes conclusions and proposes recommendations for the future.
