Sustainable Supply Chain Management in Tourism

Abstract

The objective of sustainable logistics management is to ensure enduring economic, environmental, and social stability, leading to long-term sustainable expansion. The global push towards sustainable development is driving the adoption of sustainable logistics practices in the management of tourism-related logistics, with a particular focus on meeting environmental performance targets. Consequently, there is an increasing amount of theoretical and practical discussion surrounding tourism logistics operations. The objective of this chapter is to examine the impact of sustainable tourism supply chain management on the environmental performance of service companies. Through a prospective analysis, the authors investigate the relationship between sustainable logistics practices in tourism and their influence on environmental performance. The findings demonstrate that coordinated, collaborative, and pooled logistics resources can enhance the efficiency of the responsible supply chain within the tourism industry.
