The Influence of Green Supply Chain Management on Sustainable Performance

Abstract

This study examines the influence of green supply chain management on sustainable performance. The natural resource-based theory was tested on manufacturing firms in Karachi, Pakistan. A quantitative approach was adopted for this study, and a multi-item measurement scale was adapted from previous studies. A structured questionnaire was developed to collect primary data—the total number of 224 responses collected from textile manufacturing firms. Structural equation modeling was applied for hypothesis testing. The findings supported three hypotheses with positive and significant results, whereas two were rejected. This research study can be helpful for supply chain managers and decision-makers. It gives them guidance for enhancing sustainability performance. It provides a framework for manufacturing firms to enhance environmental sustainability to reduce global warming and nature destruction.
