Green (GSCM)

Green supply chain management (GSCM) is evolved from supply chain management (SCM). The concept of SCM was introduced and popularized in the 1950s when manufacturers minimized the production costs through mass production. As competition intensified in the 1990s, the increased awareness of green practices has triggered firms to act in an ethically and socially responsible manner in their supply chains.

Therefore, the five hypotheses are proposed as follows:

5) Green product and process design is positively related to sustainability performance.

4) Internal environmental practice is positively related to sustainability performance.

3) Environmental collaboration is positively related to sustainability performance.

2) Supplier evaluation is positively related to sustainability performance

1) Supplier selection is positively related to sustainability performance.
