Green supply chain management practices in small and medium-sized enterprises

Green Value Chain Management (GVCM) parading is a way to change the supply chain into a value loop for saving environmental resources and assuring a businesss long-term prospects. Nowadays this phenomenon is attracting worldwide attention, particularly in large companies. Unfortunately, much evidence suggests that Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) are still struggling to implement GVCM practices and obtain the expected gains. This seems to be the reality in Canada and particularly in Quebec. In order to acquire a better understanding of the adoption process of GVCM practices as well as the results obtained in Quebec and discover possible tracks for fostering the adoption process and improve obtained performance, this project aims at mapping the main practices related to supply chain logistics that can leverage the environmental performance of SMEs. In order to do so, the intern will first perform a literature review on the domain and after that she or he will support the research team in collecting field data from SMEs in the province of Québec. Awaiting more information from the professor. Please check back soon. Do not contact Globalink Research Internships.
