Summary note

With increased attention to corporate responsibility and the requirement to comply with environmental regulations, green supply chain management (GSCM) is becoming increasingly important for Canadian manufacturers. While the value of GSCM activities is rarely disputed, literature to-date has been sparse in presenting tangible evidence regarding performance and business benefits. For this reason, Supply Chain and Logistics Association Canada (SCL) and Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters (CME) partnered with Industry Canada to review the important service business function of GSCM. This resulting report provides unique insights to help Canadian manufacturing supply chain executives understand current trends and to recognize the benefits of adopting GSCM practices in distribution activities.
