A taxonomic framework for formulating strategies in green supply chain management

This paper addresses the increasingly important question of formulating appropriate strategies for green supply chain management. Due to increasing attention to green strategies and their impact on the natural environment, the development of a taxonomic framework for selecting appropriate strategies is imperative. In this study, we develop a taxonomic framework for formulating strategies for green supply chains based on characteristic green supply chain dimensions. The practical implication of this work is that the choice of green supply chain strategy impacts environmental and operations performance. The framework developed can be used as a tool for developing green supply chain management strategies, providing sound managerial insights
