Abstract: As the global business landscape dramatically alters, there needs to be a similar change in the way organisations are performing and in which supply chain strategies are determined. One interesting debate has centred on the relative merits of 'lean', 'agile', 'resilient' and 'green' (LARG) philosophies and how they can contribute to building a companies' competitive advantage. Combining the existing understanding of concepts - business model (BM) and LARG principles - this paper focuses on the multidisciplinary area of LARG in business models and adds insights to the discussion about BM tools and particularly on the business model canvas (BMC) as a framework to develop LARG principles in business settings. Although recognising the limitations when trying to align LARG principles and the building blocks of BMC, this research aims to contribute to the discussion on creating an ideal type of BM to be adapted to LARG paradigm. To the knowledge of the authors, it is the first attempt to critically review the empirical research articles in LARG and business model canvas (BMC).
