Abstract: Abstract This chapter examines the notion of green supply chain management in the New Zealand business context. Green supply chain management has attracted considerable attention within both academic and corporate worlds. Many proactive firms have acknowledged the significance of greening the supply chain activities and are seeking ways to integrate green practices across their supply chain networks. Despite this emergent trend, unfortunately, a majority of firms lack a systematic approach by which green practices are effectively embedded in their supply chains. To address this issue, this chapter introduces the best practices framework for greening the supply chain. The framework identifies and explicates the key green supply chain management strategies that can be employed in a firm to improve its economic, environmental and operational performance as well as business value amongst its stakeholders.
