摘要
Sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) is increasingly followed by academia and industry. Although some companies have shown their success in implementing SSCM practices, many are still hesitant - that is, certain challenges to SSCM operation still exist. The focus of this study was to identify the influential factors of SSCM practices from both the conceptual and practical perspectives. A verified SSCM questionnaire was conducted to investigate the differences of the influential factors between Taiwan and Vietnam, and to explore the regional phenomenon of SSCM implementation. The result could be used to support the argument of related literature that pressure, strategy, uncertainty, internal management and external management could be the influential factors of the success/failure of the SSCM adoption. Local practices of sustainability in Taiwan and Vietnam were addressed and discussed in this study. Future study might survey other Asian countries to examine the international difference.
