Green Supply Chain Management is an approach that incorporates environmental considerations into supply chain operations, including sourcing, manufacturing, packaging, transportation, and end-of-life disposal. The goal is to reduce the ecological footprint of supply chain activities while maintaining efficiency and profitability. Strategies include using sustainable materials, optimizing routes to reduce fuel consumption, recycling and waste reduction, and working with environmentally responsible suppliers. GSCM not only supports corporate social responsibility goals but can also lead to long-term cost savings and regulatory compliance.
