A causal relationship model of green logistics management and lean management affecting food and beverage industrial performance in Thailand
Keywords:
green logistics, lean management, industrial performance, environmental performance, food beverage industryAbstract
This research aims to study the effect of green logistics management and lean management on environmental performance and industrial performance of food and beverage industry in Thailand. The research was designed as quantitative. The sample consisted of 430 food and beverage enterprises in Thailand. Data were analyzed using structural equation modelling (SEM) technique. The findings revealed that green logistics management and lean management influence environmental performance and industrial performance of the food and beverage industry in Thailand at a statistical significance level of 0.05 with the statistical values of c2= 99.472, df = 83, p-value = 0.105, c2/df = 1.198, RMSEA = 0.022, RMR = 0.009, GFI = 0.976, AGFI = 0.945, CFI = 0.998, which can predict 77.80% of industrial performance. This indicates that that green logistics management and lean management can help improve performance of organizations and industries, enabling them to compete and survive in a dynamic business environment. Not only do green logistics management and lean management help improve financial performance, but they also help protect the environment, leading organizations to develop sustainable growth.
