“…While only a few studies have clearly proved that social capital has a meaningful influence on environmental performance, Mitra and Datta [89] showed that supplier collaboration has a positive effect on environmental performance, specifically toward green product design and logistics.…”

This study investigates the impact of three institutional pressures, namely government, customer, and competitor pressures, on the environmental and operational performance of firms. These three institutional pressures are examined by implementing green supply chain management, considering the role of top management and studying social capital between buyers and suppliers in the supply chain. Data were collected through an electronic mail survey from buyer firms in the manufacturing industry in Korea. With 241 complete and usable responses, we used structural equation modeling to test our hypotheses. Our findings revealed that the majority of our hypotheses were supported, which is in line with the existing literature. However, the impact of coercive pressure on top management support and the impact of structural social capital on performance were found to be insignificant. The major contribution of our study is that it broadens the framework of green supply chain management (GSCM) by integrating major and recent constructs in the GSCM theory, while also providing instructive managerial implications through empirical evidence.

“…Based on comparative studies in similar fields (i.e. Kirkham et al, 2014;Kumar et al 2014;Mitra and Datta, 2014), the sample size of 139 responses used for the analysis was considered acceptable. Table 3 presents the profile of the respondent organisations in terms of their size, geographic location and industrial sector.…”

“…While adopting GSCM practices, collaboration is crucial since a firm cannot be more environmentally sustainable than its suppliers [21]. The managers need to encourage all the parties involved in the chain to use sustainable practices and provide environment-friendly materials.…”

“…If companies have a legitimate concern for the environment and there is social approval, then environmental practices will be deployed more rapidly throughout the supply chain. It is important to note that the growth in adoption is in part because of institutional pressures driven by market and regulatory demands [7], [15], [21], [22], [23]. Examples of legislation are carbon pricing policies, carbon taxes and fuel prices [22].…”

-In a competitive market, organizations expand their supply chain on a global scale. Pressure from customers, stakeholders, legislation and environmental organizations have pushed companies to be more considerate of the environmental impacts of their supply chain. This development has put focus on sustainability within supply chains, leading to the rise of Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM). The purpose of this research is to create a conceptual model to present the vastly varied literature within the area of GSCM in a structured way, in order to promote environmental and in turn, overall supply chain performance. The research methodology includes a literature review using 125 peer-reviewed journal articles from 2013 to 2016 published in 19 journals. Out of the 125, 10 journal articles were selected based on their focus in regard to the subject. The articles were chosen to attain a vantage point in view of critical factors within environmentally sustainable supply chains with a focus on optimizing performance. This paper contributes to theory by presenting a conceptual model for optimizing performance in green supply chains. Drivers, which promote Green Supply Chain (GSC) are classified as re-active and pro-active, and the main methods used for optimizing performance are concluded to be collaboration, metrics to monitor performance and practices such as green purchasing, ecodesign, reverse logistics and legislation. The review may be of use to both academics and companies as it outlines proven ways to implement green supply chain with high performance.
