Green Logistics Practices and Firm Sustainability (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786207996070)

Sustainability has increasingly taken the centre stage of today's organisation. Thus, organisations have begun to align priorities to focus on factors that improve the effectiveness of their operations and integrate environmental concerns into the supply chain management system, especially among fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) firms. Despite this, studies have established that FMCG firms are faced with the struggle to maintain a substantial level of social, financial, operational, product and environmental sustainability. This impediment has been created due to poor management of green logistics practices (green production, green procurement, green transportation, green packaging, and reverse logistics). However, most of the extant researches focus more on other industries other than FMCG and developed countries than developing countries. This study investigated green logistics practices and firm sustainability of selected FMCG firms in Lagos State, Nigeria. The study adopted survey research design. The population of study was 13,782 management employees of eight quoted FMCG firms in Lagos State, Nigeria. The sample size of 519 was determined using Taro Yamane formula.
