Humanitarian supply chain (HSC) has attracted enormous interest from both practitioners and academics lately, mainly because of its essential role in curbing the increase in human-made and natural disasters. Knowing what has been done in the field so far as to design a robust research agenda to tackle future HSC challenges is an important research objective. In this study, a bibliometric analysis was conducted to assess the current level of research on the HSC. A search of documents dealing with HSC was realized in the Web of Science database, a world-leading publisher-independent global citation database. The search identified 1152 documents, and the data collected was analyzed by means of a bibliometric tool called Bibliometrix. Key findings are presented and discussed, followed by some potential future research avenues.
