GREEN SUPPLY CHAIN OPTIMIZATION FOR SME SUSTAINABILITY

Abstract

Green Supply Chain (GSC) integrates environmental considerations into supply chain practices to achieve sustainable outcomes across environmental, social, and economic dimensions. SMEs in Indonesia and Malaysia face unique challenges in adopting GSC due to limited resources, fragmented supply chains, and varying levels of government support. GSC training is needed to enhance participants' knowledge and skills in optimizing green supply chains, which will ultimately enhance the sustainability of SMEs in Malaysia and Indonesia. The evaluation of the activity revealed that most participants were very satisfied with the activity and gained improved knowledge and skills in managing GSC.
