Abstract

This research delves into the barriers hindering the effective integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles within the supply chain management. Despite the growing regulatory demands and societal expectations for sustainable operations, numerous challenges stifle ESG adoption in supply chain management. Utilizing the group-based fuzzy best worst method, this study evaluates the relative significance of these barriers through expert pairwise comparisons. The findings reveal that unclear ESG metrics, accountability, and insufficient governmental support are the predominant obstacles. This paper aims to provide stakeholders with a deeper understanding of these challenges and suggest actionable strategies for enhancing ESG implementation in logistics, thereby contributing to the broader goals of sustainable development.
