An Empirical Study on Relationship between Green Supply Chain Management and SME Performance in China

摘要：

Conventional theory holds that green supply chain management will cause more cost to SMEs, which is lack of resources. This subsequently leads to lower firm performance of SMEs. While researchers have explored the relationship between green supply chain management and business performance in different organizations, such studies in SMEs are scarce. This study investigates potential influences of GSCM on the performance of SMEs in China. Data for this study were collected through personal interviews, and the study developed a scale to specify the dimensions of a GSCM.Results indicated that the scale in this study provided a good measure of market orientation in this setting. Also, the results of analyses indicated a significant link between GSCM and the performance of SMEs in China.
