Abstract

The abstract of the paper "Sustainable Supply Chain Practices" highlights the importance of integrating environmental, social, and economic considerations into the supply chain management processes. This study examines the current trends and challenges in adopting sustainable practices within the supply chain of various industries. By analyzing case studies and empirical data, the paper reveals that sustainable supply chain management (SCM) not only reduces environmental impact but also enhances corporate social responsibility and economic profitability. The findings suggest that the integration of sustainability into supply chain operations requires a holistic approach, encompassing stakeholder collaboration, technological innovation, and continuous improvement. Furthermore, the paper discusses the potential barriers and benefits associated with the transition towards sustainable SCM, providing valuable insights for businesses and policymakers aiming to create more resilient and sustainable supply chain systems.
