Keywords:
Green Supply Chain Management, Barriers , DriversAbstract
Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) has emerged as an important organizational philosophy to reduce environmental risks, but there are many Barriers as well as Drivers which affects directly and indirectly to the implementation of GSCM in an organization (different at different levels and with respect to organization‟s level of development). In this paper a total number of 20 Barriers and a total number of 16 Drivers are identified through extensive literature review and expert opinion to academics. These Barriers and Drivers are almost common for various organizations for the adoption and implementation of GSCM in them.
