Abstract

Sustainability and social responsibility incorporate specific and measurable practices across the supply chain. However, little effort has been done regarding these practices in developing countries. Therefore, the purpose of this chapter is threefold. First, it reviews research on supply chain sustainability in developing countries. Second, it develops key propositions related to the adoption of supply chain sustainability and its impact on sustainable performance. Third, it empirically tests these propositions in a developing context. Challenges and opportunities for further research are also highlighted.
