Abstract: Abstract With the development of low-carbon awareness, integrating environmental criteria into supply management has become an important strategic issue for industries. All members in the supply chain, including suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers and consumers, are facing increasing regulatory pressures to embrace sustainable operations and achieve better environmental and economic performance. This research examines the carbon footprint across the manufacturing supply chains and thus contributes to the knowledge and practice of green manufacturing supply chain management. This paper will use process analysis to calculate the carbon footprint in the whole end-to-end supply chain.
