“…Another external barrier identified was the sustainability requirements imposed by buyers. Although we often find these requirements in the literature as drivers for sustainability (see Berardi & Brito, 2015), in our analysis, they were also identified as barriers in multiple articles because of the imposition element. For example, Paper 21 evidenced that when focal buyers simply impose codes of conduct for their suppliers RAUSP 58,3 without supporting them or asking for suppliers' commitment, these codes/standards act only as a wish list.…”

Purpose This paper aims to investigate how the extant literature on sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) empirically explores the perspective of emerging economy suppliers operating in global supply chains (GSCs). It thereby explains the role of emerging economy suppliers in determining the success of SSCM. Design/methodology/approach A systematic literature review of 41 empirical papers (published between 2007 and 2021) was conducted, involving both descriptive and thematic analyses. Findings The findings demonstrate that emerging economy suppliers have a key role in SSCM, given their use of positive feedback loops to proactively create remedies to surpass barriers using their collaboration mechanisms, and exploit authentic sustainability outcomes as reinforcements to drive further sustainability initiatives. The authors also demonstrate that suppliers are particularly focused on the cultural and institutional dimensions of sustainability. Finally, the authors provide an explanatory analytical framework to reduce the institutional distance between buyers and their global suppliers. Research limitations/implications This review identifies avenues for future research on the role of emerging economy suppliers in SSCM. Practical implications Recognising remedies to surpass barriers and reinforcements to drive new actions can aid SSCM in GSCs and improve understanding between buyers and suppliers. Social implications The valorisation of cultural and institutional issues can lead to more responsible supplier interactions and improved sustainability outcomes in emerging economies. Originality/value This review only analyses the viewpoint of emerging economy suppliers, whereas prior SSCM reviews have focused on the buyer perspective. Thus, the authors reduce supplier invisibility and institutional distance between GSC participants.

“…Cassel and Lewis (2011) explored the link between attitude and action through the examination of the interrelationship between awareness of environmental impact, attitude towards environmental issues, and environmental practice adoption. Berardi and de Brito (2015) investigated the environmental management process and analyzed the strength of the main environmental drivers in improving environmental practices in Brazilian firms.…”

Abstract. The modern enterprises consider the sustainable development as the one of basic conceptions of one's activity. In recent years, an increasing number of private as well as public organizations have been engaged with implementation and using of environmental management systems (EMSs). The research is built up by two main parts. In the first, author prepared theoretical analyses of literature and scientific publications. The second part based on survey results collected from Latvian companies using in depth interviews. Author proposes that the process of environmentally oriented business should be studied as a multi-dimensional issue. Company's external and internal environment elements were shown. In article author also investigated different factors influencing company's environmental management and motives of implementing EMS.

“…Many authors highlight the direct stakeholders' impact on strategic organization management (Vasiliauskas 2002 In response to environmental demands, companies choose different types of environmental strategies (Berardi, Brito, 2015;Sharma, Ruud, 2003;Ormazabal, Sarriegi, 2014;Darnall et al, 2010). Most of the scholars agree that environmental issues are of strategic importance for organizations (Hart, 1995;Vachon, Klassen, 2007).…”

“…First can be generalized as a reactive strategy which is more passive and is aimed at pure compliance with institutional regulation (Berardi, Brito, 2015) and other elements of environment, and which is communicating and searching for information about pressure groups as well (Samson, Daft, 2011;Day, Schoemaker, 2005). Such initiatives involve limited resources and are designed to manage liability risks and to reduce costs (Berardi, Brito, 2015).…”
