Sustainable supply chains are one of the development trends of modern business strategies. They are a response to economic challenges and trends, while at the same time being a creator of value and competitive advantage. This book identifies environmental, social, and economic issues not only as the basis for configuring a sustainable supply chain, but also as important determinants of supply chain resilience.
By presenting a new model, Sustainable Supply Chain 2.0, this book combines academic theory with practical demonstration on how to build resilient supply chains that implement the principles of sustainable development. It will be of great interest to students of management, supply chain and logistics studies, as well as researchers in the field and business practitioners, including supply chain managers.
