The search for new technologies that can mitigate the negative impacts caused by the processes of production and the excessive consumption of raw material has gained more and more relevance in the business world. In this scenario, the present research aims to identify the contributions that green logistics and green procurement bring to the management of the green supply chain. The present research is justified by the increase in the adoption of ecological practices by the companies, which implies in the continuous search for improvement of the techniques that involve all the practices within the Chain of Green Supply, aiming at greater efficiency of the whole chain. Once ISO 20400 was implemented, which came into force in 2017, it aims to increase the efficiency of green purchasing practices.The method used was the qualitative exploratory bibliographic research carried out in the secondary databases ACM, EBSCO, Emerald, Academic OneFile (GALE), Scielo, Sciense Direct, Springer, Web of Science, and Wiley. A bibliometric analysis of the information obtained was also performed. The research concluded that Green Supply Chain Management aims to reduce waste, negative impacts on the environment and maximize profitability. It increases competitiveness through innovative strategies aligned with the organization's strategic objectives: green logistics and green procurement in particular. It also contributes to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by replacing fossil fuels with alternative fuels, reducing operating costs, adapting transport modes, improving internal communication technologies, investing in personnel training to achieve sustainability.
A sustentabilidade é um conceito adotado por vários setores produtivos, a qual busca atender critérios socialmente desejados/valoráveis e imposições legais e normativas. Dentro deste contexto existem certificações e legislações internacionais que direcionam estas exigências. A Diretiva 28/2009/CE do Conselho e Parlamento Europeu, publicada em 23 de abril de 2009 e a Bonsucro (Better Sugarcane Initiative) são bases importantes de informação. Diante desse contexto, o setor sucroenergético tem as suas práticas monitoradas por todo o mundo, e práticas produtivas inadequadas com esta nova realidade interfere na comercialização dos seus produtos. Entretanto, para possibilitar que os produtores brasileiros possam atender também a essas exigências externas, o Bonsucro, única certificação para biocombustíveis derivados de cana-de-açúcar implementada no Brasil incluiu algumas das exigências da União Européia. Associado à questão, o objetivo geral desse trabalho é demonstrar através de pesquisa bibliográfica sobre a importância de se analisar as lacunas de sustentabilidade baseados no Padrão Bonsucro para alcance do mercado Europeu de nossas unidades produtoras sucroenergéticas. Como conclusão tem-se: Paralelamente, a identificação dos avanços do setor rumo à sustentabilidade da produção de etanol, e dos obstáculos ainda existentes, conduzirá não só à proposição de ações que viabilizem as exportações, mas também ações para desenvolver parte do setor que não prioriza a exportação. O segundo aspecto, bastante desafiador, baseiase na proposta de avaliação das lacunas, e propor ações para o setor sucroalcooleiro quanto ao atendimento a requisitos que lhe favorecerão no acesso a mercados.
Sustainability is a concept adopted by several productive sectors, which seeks to meet socially desired / valued criteria and legal and normative impositions. Within this context there are international certifications and legislation that address these requirements. Council Directive 28/2009 / EC and European Parliament published on 23 April 2009 and Bonsucro (Better Sugarcane Initiative) are important information bases. Given this context, the sugarcane industry has its practices monitored all over the world, and inappropriate productive practices with this new reality interfere in the marketing of its products. However, in order to enable Brazilian producers to meet these external requirements, Bonsucro, the only certification for sugarcane-derived biofuels implemented in Brazil, included some of the requirements of the European Union. The objective of this work is to demonstrate, through a bibliographical research, the importance of analyzing the sustainability gaps based on the Bonsucro Standard to reach the European market of our sugar and ethanol production units. In conclusion, the identification of the advances of the sector towards the sustainability of ethanol production, and the obstacles that still exist, will lead not only to the proposal of actions that make exports feasible, but also actions to develop part of the sector that does not prioritizes the export. The second aspect, which is quite challenging, is based on the proposal to evaluate the shortcomings and propose actions for the sugar and alcohol industry to meet the requirements that will favor market access.
