A proposed framework for applying Sustainable Supply Chain Management as an approach to improve Egyptian companies’ performance

Abstract

The relationship between the application of sustainable supply chain management practices and company’s performance has yielded inconclusive results as it assumes implicitly, that this relationship is direct. Moreover, there is scarcity in research that examines this relationship while considering the sustainability of supply chains in a comprehensive manner. The purpose of this research is to study this relationship while considering sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) as an expansion to green supply chain management (GSCM) added to it social and resilient supply chain practices (SRSC).
