Construction of Green Supply Chain for Organic Products

Abstract

The literature indicates that green supply chain is not only dedicated for organic products. Rather, the authors take a focus on the analysis of processes, organizational and law issues and the implementation of innovations that include, among others, the green aspects (manufacturing, production, transportation). Connection of green supply chain with organic products seems to be very important, among other reasons, because the development of the market for these products is dynamic. The interest of these products is growing worldwide. Production of organic products is legally regulated. The final result of this work will identify the basis for building a model of green supply chain for organic products (with emphasis on agricultural products), the identification of the factors forming the basis for the construction, relationships between stakeholders and indicate which of the factors determine the greening supply chain and whether they are necessary or sufficient factors for the role of ecological products of the market.

A review and scientometric analysis of supply chain management (SCM)

“…At this point, the concept of green supply chain starts to emerge in the literature. In the most recent period (period 3), the evolution of SCM has shifted its focus to enterprise social responsibility (Hsueh, 2014;New, 2015;Quarshie et al,2016;Fenget al,2017), reverse logistics (Soleimani and Govindan, 2014;Alshamsi and Diabat, 2015),further development of green supply chain (Govindan et al, 2014;Tundys and Rzeczycki, 2015;Li et al, 2016),and working capital optimization (Silvestro and Lustrato, 2014;Lind et al, 2016;Liu and Zhou, 2017). Characterized by the articles published during the study period, Period 1 tends to focus on initial theoretical and conceptual framework studies that help describe the field.…”

Food Safety Labelling Management in the Green Supply Chain Management: A Direct Observational Study in the Vietnamese Retail Food Sector

“…The requirements for safe vegetable production are not nearly as stringent (Simmons, 2008). The USA and EU had authorized its own United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Council Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 to control conventional pesticide ingredients or ionizing radiation (Tundys, 2015). Despite Vietnam being the largest agricultural producer in South East Asia, there are few studies related to food safety labelling management in the Vietnamese retail food industry.…”

Operations and Supply Chain Management: Toward Ten Years of Journey

“…In the second and very close count is the issue of sustainability which has 16 papers published in OSCM Journal. This includes such issues as remanufacturing (Gan et al, 2014), green procurement (Lacroix et al, 2011), reverse logistics (Lashkari and Zhang, 2008), environmentally conscious supply chain design (Krejci and Beamon, 2010), construction supply chain (Tundys and Rzeczycki, 2015) to name a few. In addition there are more than 10 papers that present various issues within inventory management and a sizeable number of papers on the issue of supplier selection.…”
