The perception of maritime firms in Malaysia was examined with a view to understanding the adoption level of maritime green supply chain management and its correlation with financial outcomes. Three statistical tests were utilised. The first adopted assessment was the internal consistency test which measured the scale reliability. Afterwards, the different variations among group means level of adoption (seed, start-up, expansion, monitoring and control) in the sample was examined using one-way ANOVA analysis. The results showed that the aggregate value of MGSCM practices has positive correlation with maritime supply chain financial efficiency. This paper, apart from establishing that small sample size is sufficient for a pilot study. It is necessary to conduct a pilot study prior the actual data collection.
