“…Thus, it is clear that the use of EVs offers more benefits than fuel-based vehicles and business organizations can reap its benefits for their efficient performance (Pernestål et al. , 2020; Tyagi and Vishwakarma, 2022; Dias, 2022, [8]).…”

“…Finally, the study found that the adoption of EVs in the business process offers many benefits to business organizations such as minimized operational costs, eco-friendly business model, more tax incentives, less BPCs, low-emission footprint and contribution towards SD at large (Pernestål et al. , 2020; Tyagi and Vishwakarma, 2022). These results of the study add to the rapidly expanding field of research on the current topic and it also serves as one of the foundational research on EV-based business models.…”

“…Reducing such costs contributes to minimizing the overall BPC (Nieuwenhuis and Wells, 2012; Pernestål et al. , 2020; Tyagi and Vishwakarma, 2022). Hence, it is hypothesized that (H 1 ) the use of EVs minimizes overall BPCs.…”

“…One sample t-test was conducted to know the significance of the opinion given by managers' and the result shows a significant p-value of less than 0.01, which indicates that the opinion given by the respondent managers is statistically significant. Thus, it is clear that the use of EVs offers more benefits than fuel-based vehicles and business organizations can reap its benefits for their efficient performance (Pernest al et al, 2020;Tyagi and Vishwakarma, 2022;Dias, 2022, [8]).…”

“…To achieve multiple objectives such as minimizing the negative impacts of business transportation, improving business processes, minimizing cost and achieving environmental sustainability, one of the keys would be the use of Alternative Fuel Vehicles, also referred to as Electric Vehicles or EVs (Pernestål et al. , 2020; Tyagi and Vishwakarma, 2022). Further, business organizations can also use EVs as a potential medium for enhancing air quality and energy security and resolving natural resources problems at large [4].…”

PurposeThe study aimed at analyzing operations managers’ perception of the use of electric vehicles (EVs) in business processes and its impact on overall business process cost (BPC) and sustainable development (SD).Design/methodology/approachThe present study adopts the triangulation approach which is a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. The data was collected using structured and scientifically tested questionnaires from the industrial managers working in the industries in the Mysore region of Karnataka. Descriptive statistics, factor analysis and structural equation models were employed to analyze and interpret the data.FindingsThe findings revealed that the usage of EVs in Business Processes significantly impacts the BPC (b = 0.851, t = 8.037, p < 0.01) and it is also the usage of EVs in business processes can significantly impact SD (b = 0.889, t = 7.923, p < 0.01). Thus, the adoption of EVs in the business process offers many benefits to business organizations such as minimized operational costs, an eco-friendly business model, more tax incentives, less BPCs, a low-emission footprint and a contribution towards SD at large.Practical implicationsMany business organizations operating in the present time show interest in employing EVs in their business processes. Hence, before introducing EVs in industries on a large scale, it becomes imperative to obtain the perception of industrial managers who have already experienced its impact. This study may help industrial organizations to understand the impact of EV on various aspects of the business and to design a business model which would help in achieving SD goals.Originality/valueThe use of EVs in the daily life of human beings and business activities is gaining importance because of the various positive impacts. Therefore, it is necessary to understand industrial managers’ opinions regarding the use of EV in business activities.

The food and beverage (F&B) sector in Malaysia is experiencing rapid growth, largely driven by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). However, many Malaysian F&B companies are encountering challenges when it comes to adopting environmentally friendly practices to enhance their environmental performance. This research aims to pinpoint the obstacles that hinder the implementation of Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) in the F&B industry and to identify the drivers that influence companies' adoption of GSCM initiatives. Data was gathered through semi-structured interviews with 10 individuals from five different F&B SMEs (Companies A, B, C, D, and E) using a qualitative methodology. The data was analyzed using ATLAS.ti version 10, and themes were identified through coding. The study's findings revealed that a lack of knowledge and information sharing presents the most significant barrier to GSCM implementation, as there is insufficient awareness and dissemination of green concepts and practices among SME employees and consumers. Information sharing is crucial for facilitating green activities and promoting collaboration within the supply chain. Additionally, green manufacturing was identified as the most important driver in encouraging environmentally friendly practices among the top five drivers. SME companies need to find a balance between production performance and meeting sustainability requirements. Understanding the barriers and drivers of Malaysian F&B SMEs will enable practitioners to make well-informed decisions regarding GSCM implementation, ultimately enhancing the performance of the F&B industry and ensuring a sustainable food supply.
