The purpose of this research is to holistically examine the development of supply chain integration (SCI) domain over the preceding economic cycle to project emerging themes that will shape the trajectory of future research. We conduct a systematic literature review to explore the trajectories in SCI domain with articles retrieved from aggregating databases. A total of 152 articles, which satisfied the evaluation and selection process, were analysed. The analysis reveals the intricate correlation between SCI and performance and highlights the progressively pivotal role of blockchain, artificial intelligence, and environmental exigency in SCI adoption. Our findings suggest the need for further research into the impact of SCI on corporate social responsibility performance and on SCI adoption practice in specific industries. Tiered sample collection research is encouraged in this field. However, this paper only included high–ranking peer-reviewed publications. Future SLR papers can incorporate wider sources of data to include meaningful information. By identifying and elucidating key themes, this study offers valuable insights that can inform and guide future research directions in the field of SCI.
