Abstract

Sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) is a vital strategy for reducing environmental impact while improving efficiency. This study examines the integration of circular economy principles into SSCM across agriculture, healthcare, and asset management. Using a comparative approach, it identifies sector-specific challenges and best practices in resource utilization, waste minimization, and closed-loop logistics. Circular strategies—such as resource recovery, product life extension, and sustainable redesign—are explored as pathways to ecological balance and long-term viability. The role of digital technologies is emphasized: IoT enables data-driven decision-making through sensor networks and real-time monitoring, while blockchain provides transparency, traceability, and secure transactions, strengthening trust in procurement and logistics. Green logistics and sustainable transportation are also highlighted for reducing carbon emissions and enhancing resilience. Drawing on case studies, interviews, and performance analysis, the study offers actionable insights and recommendations for policymakers, managers, and sustainability professionals seeking to align SSCM with environmental and digital transformation goals.
