Abstract: Abstract The food industry competition has changed to supply chain competition, which requires sustainability through environmental and ethical awareness. So, the researcher redefines environmental awareness, social responsibility, and ethical practice throughout the upstream to the downstream supply chain by applying the theory of color psychology to become white supply chain management. This research aimed to test an Instrument for measuring the model of white supply chain management for sustainable performance in the food industry by studying, examining, and reviewing the literature in the form of books, journals, and related research to develop questions used as an instrument for collecting data from a sample group of the food industry in Thailand. The instrument was validated by five research and statistics experts in the food industry. The index of item objective congruence (IOC) for all questions was more than 0.5, indicating the instrument's usability. Afterward, the researchers performed a pilot study to test the instrument's reliability and make improvements. The improved questionnaire was then utilized to collect data from 30 samples, after which the collected data were calculated to assess the reliability by analyzing with Cronbach's alpha coefficient at a confidence interval of 95%. The analysis results showed that the Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.966 overall, which was at an acceptable level. Thus, the instrument could be used to measure the factors influencing the model of white supply chain management for sustainable performance in the food industry.
