“…Among the SCSS studies, majorities address social sustainability of companies from the USA and Europe (Awan, 2019b ; Ciliberti et al, 2008 ; Hervani et al, 2022 ), while the manufacturing companies from Asia are less explored with only a paucity of studies on companies from China (Lu et al, 2012 ; Ye et al, 2022 ) and India (Mani et al, 2016b ; Mathivathanan et al, 2022 ). Klassen and Vereecke ( 2012 ) assert that social issues are temporal sensitive, contextual and dynamic, and generalization of social issues and outcomes is difficult on the grounds of diverse social norms.…”

“…Table 3 summarizes the key green relational capabilities for supply chain value exploration. Improving high quality information sharing, evaluation, and synergies across industries for green innovation [6,17,20,22,23,38,40,70,81,82] Early GSCM practices have advocated the monitoring of suppliers' performances [77]. Bowen et al, (2001) [73] demonstrate that manufacturers can have more direct control on green compliance through monitoring suppliers in areas of pollution emission and controlling input of hazardous materials on component production.…”

“…Compared to developed Western markets, GSCM in China is still at an infant stage of business management [14,20,21]. Since different conditions of market resources and institutions can influence the way that a business adopts EM [22][23][24], the research context of the emerging Chinese market may lead to new insights in the GSCM literature and businesses.…”

Extant studies identify different strategic approaches for businesses to integrate environment management (EM) into corporate supply chain management (SCM) to create different competitive market advantages. With increasing market uncertainties, stakeholder complexities, constraints of resources, companies nowadays are required to develop more context-specific solutions for mitigating sustainability risk and improving market performance in supply chain sustainability practices. To address the challenges faced by businesses, this study aims to explore how a company adapts green supply chain strategies for a competitive transformation. Specifically, we aim to identify different green supply chain capabilities that form hybrid choices of green solutions for a company to leverage an adaptive green shift. Through an extensive literature review, this study proposes a conceptual framework for exploration which is based on a qualitative in-depth case study in the electronics industry—one of the most polluting manufacturing sectors in China. The findings show that supply chain characteristics play a significant role in the selection of different green SCM solutions by businesses. We find different hybrid choices of strategic decisions are being made by the case company operating with high-volume and high-value supply chains respectively. High-volume supply chains adopt both operational pollution and waste control strategies and incremental green product strategies to balance cost of operational change and develop a competitive eco-efficient market expansion. In contrast, high-value supply chains adopt radical green product innovation strategies and operational waste prevention strategies to balance cost of product innovation and build operational efficiency to expand in a competitive eco-differentiation market. A mix of dynamic capabilities involved in different supply chain green transformations are also identified.

The popularization of electric vehicles (EVs) is beneficial to the sustainable development of energy and the environment. China’s promotion and development strategy for EVs will serve as a model for other countries. EV ownership has a significant difference between first/second-tier (FST) cities and third/fourth-tier (TFT) cities and there is a huge growth potential for the EV market in those TFT cities. This paper aims to explore the factors influencing the adoption intentions for EVs in FST and TFT cities under a subsidy deduction and to make a comparative analysis of their regional heterogeneity. Based on the extended theory of planned behavior (TPB) model, the structural equation model is used to compare the factors affecting the adoption intention for EVs of 858 respondents in China. The results show that attitude, subjective norms, novelty seeking, non-financial incentive, product cognition, and environmental concerns are positively related to intention in FST and TFT cities; however, infrastructure development only has a positive significant impact in the TFT cities. Additionally, the subsidy deduction has a more negative impact on the adoption intentions in FST cities. Our findings provide vital insights for formulating government regulations and marketing strategies depending on the diverse sizes and attributes of Chinese cities.
