Sustainable Supply Chain is a growing trend in 2021 but what's it all about?
The first thing to clarify is that when we talk about sustainability we generally focus on environmental or ecological factors such as environmental footprint and climate change. But when sustainability is applied to corporations, it takes on a much larger and even more challenging context.
So, First Let’s Define ‘Sustainable Supply Chain’
Sustainable is an approach or framework for managing an organization that measures and balances the triple bottom line i.e., Economic, Environmental, and Social impacts on stakeholders and society.
The sustainable supply chain is a rapidly growing trend playing a pivotal role in transforming businesses worldwide. They are a critical link that connects business inputs to its outputs. The growing environmental costs of these networks and increasing consumer pressure for eco-friendly goods have led many firms to look at supply chain sustainability as a new measure of profitable logistics management that balances the triple bottom line.
