Theoretical model of green supply chain management: Support elements

Abstract

Nowadays, works on supply chain management continue to expand, which is associated with the speedy growth of technology on one hand, and the global issue of climate change on the other hand. All these factors have contributed to the emergence of a new field of research, namely the green supply chain management especially in the early 2000s. Through this paper, a brief literature review was conducted in order to summarize the published research work on green supply chain management, followed by a theoretical model that combines a set of tools and practices as support elements for the green supply chain management.
