- Abstract
The global climate crisis hampers emerging economies, hindering textile manufacturers from implementing innovative measures to address climate change impacts in their daily operations amidst a complex and dynamic business environment. The key focus of the current study is to investigate the impact of sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) practices on the operational, organizational and environmental performance of textile firms. Data from 210 textile firms in a developing country context severely impacted by climate change and global warming was collected using cluster sampling for the study. The study shows that implementing SSCM practices can improve operational efficiency and organizational and environmental performance. Furthermore, the findings indicate that environmental goals (environmental cost savings and environmental impact) can be enhanced by implementing proper SSCM practices through operational excellence. In conclusion, this study offers implications for managers and insights to policymakers and managers of the textile industry.
