The article, Industry expectations of supply chain management graduates: Perspectives from third-party logistics providers in South Africa concluded;

The participants expressed that new graduates are adequately equipped with the knowledge expected. However, a misalignment exists between the skills expected in the 3PL industry and those delivered by universities. (Allden, M., Niemann, W., & Kotzé, T., 2018. p. 11)
