Abstract

The environmental performance index reveals that the environmental health and ecosystem vitality is critical in emerging economies of Asia. Therefore, green procurement policy has become an imperative component for the firms. The present study critically assesses and examines the green procurement practices being adopted by the top 25 manufacturing firms in an emerging economy (which is amongst the top polluted countries of Asia) over a time period of eight years (2012-2019). The results of the study reveal that the adoption and reporting of green procurement practices is very poor. The study has practical implications for the development of pragmatic strategies by the government and the corporate strategy makers to improve the environmental performance of the manufacturing firms through green procurement practices.
