Description:
Sustainable Supply Chain Management is the management of environmental, social and economic impacts, and the encouragement of good governance practices, throughout the lifecycles of goods and services [1]. For this process, the involvement of all the stakeholders in a supply chain is very vital. However different stakeholders may have different perspectives about different principles. Therefore, this research is focused on understanding what sustainable supply chain principles can best be applied in the supply chain of the manufacturing industry with positive perception of most stakeholders. In addition, this research also discusses the importance of sustainable supply chain principles, barriers to implementing sustainable supply chain principles and sustainability-related standard certifications.
