Green supply chain management and financial performance: The mediating roles of operational and environmental performance
研究基于126家中国汽车制造商的调查数据，发现绿色供应链管理通过提升运营和环境绩效间接改善财务绩效，对供应链管理者和研究者有参考价值。
Abstract This study investigates the mediating effects of environmental and operational performance on the relationship between green supply chain management (GSCM) and financial performance. The proposed relationships are analyzed using survey data from a sample of 126 automobile manufacturers in China. The results suggest that GSCM as an integral supply chain strategy is significantly and positively associated with both environmental and operational performance, which then indirectly leads to improved financial performance. The results indicate the possible complementarity effects between various internal and external GSCM practices.
