Sustainability in Supply Chain Management: Exploring the Role of Green Practices in Corporate Performance

Abstract

Sustainability has become an integral element of modern business strategy, particularly in supply chain management (SCM). The incorporation of green practices within SCM not only addresses environmental concerns but also has a significant impact on corporate performance. This paper explores the role of sustainable practices in supply chains, focusing on how green initiatives such as resource efficiency, waste reduction, and carbon footprint minimization contribute to improved corporate outcomes. Through a review of existing literature and case studies, this paper identifies the benefits and challenges associated with the implementation of sustainable practices and highlights their influence on both operational efficiency and long-term business success. The findings emphasize the importance of green practices in enhancing corporate performance, providing a competitive advantage, and fulfilling corporate social responsibility (CSR) goals.
