AB  - This article reviews the most recent and outstanding Industry 4.0 technologies applied in smart warehouses. Industry 4.0 integrates innovations such as the Internet of Things (IoT), robotics, and Big Data analytics to transform warehouse management and operation. Design/Methodology – This article reviews the most recent innovations in Industry 4.0 technologies applied to smart warehouses and proposes an extended warehouse model incorporating IoT and AI to enhance operational efficiency. By evaluating the implementation of these technologies, the article provides an overview of how these tools improve operational efficiency, inventory control accuracy, and process optimization through massive data generation. Findings – Efficient warehouse management faces challenges like handling large data volumes, high routing costs, space optimization, and complexities from mass product customization that impact inventory, control and efficiency. This study highlights Industry 4.0 technologies such as IoT, AI, Big Data, and robotics, as key enablers of intelligent, autonomous warehouses. While these innovations enhance operations, challenges remain in interoperability, cybersecurity and investment. The findings stress the need for simulation-based validation, specialized metrics, and a strong framework to support scalable, sustainable adoption and technology transfer across industries.
