Abstract: Abstract Logistics and supply chains as critical functional areas of operations have evolved regarding effectiveness. This evolution has implications regarding the dependability of the organisational ability to adapt and adopt relevant metrics to responsibly deliver value to organisational customers and stakeholders. Initiating and sustaining this balance pose a challenge to most organisations regarding enhancing responsible logistics and supply chain effectiveness amidst navigating emerging operational challenges. Organisations operating in emerging economies, like those operating in developed climes, need to leverage internal and external operational capabilities to resolve evolving challenges in tandem with the need to provide value to their customers responsibly. Thus, this chapter will focus on responsible logistics and supply chain framework, critical challenges in driving efficient and effective logistics, and supply chain operations in emerging economies relating to dimensions of green operations. It will also provide a framework for creating a sustainable cum responsible logistics and supply chain architecture to adapt to eco-friendly logistics practices; sustainable supply chain architecture is geared towards the responsible, innovative drive for technology, people, and the environment.
