Sustainability in the supply chain offers numerous benefits, including enhanced efficiency and cost savings. As supply chains become increasingly complex and global, they are also characterized by a range of risks and opportunities. These risks encompass inconsistent or poor-quality products, supply disruptions, health and safety concerns, and corruption. Businesses are under pressure from various stakeholders to adopt sustainable supply chain practices, driven primarily by customer demands, compliance requirements, cost considerations, and a desire to gain a competitive advantage.

It covers topics such as key performance indicators (KPIs) in production and supply chains, the role of standards, blockchain technology, and algebraic models. By presenting real-world issues, problems in implementing sustainability in the supply chain, and examples of best practices, the book offers valuable insights for professionals and organizations seeking to enhance their sustainability performance.
In conclusion, sustainability in the supply chain is crucial for businesses seeking to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and mitigate risks.
