The sustainable performance in logistics companies: supply chain environmental responsibility perspective

Strengthening the calibre and efficacy of economic expansion is a top priority for the State in its pursuit of high-quality economic development. The transition to a green, low-carbon economy is now a crucial tactic for advancing economic reform. As a fundamental component of the market economy, logistics companies use environmental management strategies to help them achieve both their own development objectives and the nation's green and low-carbon ambitions. In order to investigate the mechanism of supply chain environmental responsibility on the sustainable performance of logistics enterprises and the mediating role of green innovation, this study builds a theoretical model of supply chain environmental responsibility and sustainable performance. It also gathers data from 697 disclosed Class A logistics enterprises in China in 2023 through a questionnaire survey. Green innovation has a large beneficial influence on economic, environmental, and social performance, while supply chain environmental responsibility has a significant positive impact on sustainable performance, according to the test results.
