Green Supply Chain Management Practice of FDI Companies in Vietnam

Abstract

This paper aims to develop a conceptual framework for Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) that takes into account the effect of GSCM drivers on implementing GSCM practices in Vietnam FDI companies. This study has considered organizational commitment, social network, and government support as GSCM driver factors and proposed a structural model of the relationships between GSCM drivers and GSCM practices in Vietnam FDI companies. The empirical analysis used data from 192 questionnaires which used a comprehensive, valid, and reliable tool (SPSS 26 and SmartPLS 3.0 software) to evaluate rigorous statistical tests including convergence validity, discriminatory validity, reliability, and Average Variance Extracted (AVE) to analyze and verify the gathered data and develop the hypothesis. The result of path analysis shows that GSCM driver factors constitute a structured system with different degrees of influence on GSCM drivers and GSCM practices. Organizational commitment and government support has a positive relationship with both GSCM drivers and GSCM practices, while social network only has a positive relationship on GSCM drivers. As a result, the testing of the relationship between GSCM drivers and GSCM practices has been verified and supported. The findings of this study can help managers and decision-makers to push the implementation of GSCM practices in FDI companies.

Untangling the Influencing Factors of Intention to Adopt Green Supply Chain Management Practices: An Integration of Toe Framework and Self-Determination Theory

“…Government support (GS) plays a crucial role in adopting and implementing GSCM practices by supporting the firms financially and technically (TA et al, 2020). Lin et al (2020) Argued that by implementing rules and regulations, the government can both encourage and discourage the firms from adopting technological innovation.…”

“…Lin et al (2020) Argued that by implementing rules and regulations, the government can both encourage and discourage the firms from adopting technological innovation. Government grants, taxes reductions, and environmental awareness persuade firms to adopt GSCM practices (TA et al, 2020). Environmental standards for materials and technologies have been introduced by the government globally to reduce the environmental impacts of productions which promotes the firms to adopt GSCM practices (Balasubramanian & Shukla, 2017).…”
