T1  - The effects of Green Supply Chain Practices on Organizational  Performance
N2  - The aim of this research is to investigate the unique factors that affect the 
adoption of green supply chain management (GSCM) practices in Greek 
companies, with a specific focus on how they align with the overall business 
strategy and performance. To achieve this objective, a "bottom-up" approach 
is utilized, which involves conducting case studies to assess the status of 
GSCM implementation in Greece. Additionally, the research seeks to identify 
the key barriers that must be overcome for successful integration of GSCM in 
Greek businesses.

A primary purpose of the study is to advance the field of Green Supply Chain 
Management (GSCM) research by providing new and valuable insights on 
the implementation of GSCM in a context that has received relatively minor 
or even no attention in previous studies. The findings of this study have 
practical implications for businesses operating in Greece and beyond, as 
they offer recommendations, solutions and strategies for companies seeking 
to implement GSCM practices. Eventually, this research aims to contribute to 
the overall development and understanding of GSCM, as well as to promote 
sustainable business practices in the region.
