Abstract

Tourism is ever-demanding and most economic-generating service. But, along with the benefits, it also contributes to environmental degradation and global warming. Hence, research studies on sustainable tourism are gaining importance. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) dominate the tourism industry, and sustainability in tourism SMEs can lead to sustainable tourism industry. The objective of this research is to review the research conducted on ‘tourism SMEs and sustainability’. The literature so far concentrates on business sustainability. Research on environmental sustainability of tourism SMEs is at the emerging stage. The environmental sustainability topics covered under tourism SMEs are related to water management, energy management, circular economy, owners’ motivation for environmental sustainability, sustainability indicators, environmental practices, green branding, challenges to include environmental sustainability practices, sustainability models and competitive advantage by following sustainable practices. Literature on environmental sustainability of tourism SMEs needs to be developed considering its importance in the current global sustainability crises.
