The concept of sustainable development is becoming incomprehensible and complex in global supply networks especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) that are most affected by ever-changing industry challenges and standards. Smart technologies emerged by Industry 4.0 sustainability and circular economy (CE) connection which remain unexplored can be integrated into the supply chain as a business strategy to increase collaboration and cooperation between different tiers of the supply chain to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs) according to LMIC. Therefore the main objective of this paper is to discover the drivers of a smart sustainable circular supply chain (SSCSC) in achieving the SDGs in LMIC through stakeholder theory. First a systematic review is employed to identify the drivers of the SSCSC to achieve the SDGs in the LMIC incorporating existing literature on the subject. Second the Best-Worst Method (BWM) is applied to analyze the identified drivers and then the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is used to analyze the SDGs. The applicability of the solution methodology was illustrated by providing a numerical example. The results of the study are twofold: firstly drivers are analyzed by implementation of BWM. The results of the BWM reveal that economic sustainability is the best key driver among the eight driversin achieving the SDGs meaning that without financial assistance and support achieving the SDGs becomes ineffective. Secondly the TOPSIS analysis reveals that SDG 16 (peace justice and strong institutions) is the SDG most supported by drivers.

A Smart Circular Supply Chain (SCSC) integrates both Industry 4.0 (I4.0) and Circular Economy (CE) concepts into supply chain in response to achieving sustainable goals/agenda. The purpose of this paper is to assess SCSC readiness and maturity level of SMEs considering different stakeholders from a multi-layered perspective. For this aim a conceptual framework was proposed and accomplished through a case study of SMEs in Turkey's textile industry. Such integrated approach to holistically assessing SCSC readiness and maturity makes a unique contribution to the field. The highlights of this study are summarized as follows: (1) approaching readiness and maturity in transitions by focusing on systems theory, (2) identifying the dimensions of readiness and maturity in transitions to I4.0 and CE, (3) assessment of readiness and maturity level of SMEs in transition to CE and (4) assessment of readiness and maturity level of SMEs in transition to I4.0 within the supply chain. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.

(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2024) Yasanur Kayikci; Nazlican Gozacan; Abderahman Rejeb; Rejeb, Abderahman; Gozacan-Chase, Nazlican; Kayikci, Yasanur
The transition to a circular supply chain (CSC) is a prerequisite to establish sustainability in the supply chain. Blockchain-based CSC enables stakeholders to effectively manage their decision-making processes increase revenue reduce time and costs and ensure information synchronisation. Blockchain start-ups play an essential role in facilitating the transition from a linear to a circular economy while supporting the development of CSCs. This research aims to explore the role of blockchain entrepreneurship in the transition to CSC by evaluating circular blockchain start-ups. This research contributes to the literature by providing verified roles of blockchain entrepreneurship in the transition to CSC by evaluating the literature and blockchain start-ups. Another contribution is that the causal relationships between these roles are analysed. In this study an integrated three-step methodology including Systematic Literature Review (SLR) Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) and Fuzzy Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (Fuzzy-DEMATEL) methods on the base of the theory of change is proposed. An SLR is performed to determine the roles of blockchain entrepreneurship. Then a QCA is conducted after identifying the roles for verification by evaluations of use cases of blockchain start-ups. Finally the causal relationships between these roles are interpreted by using Fuzzy-DEMATEL. Findings indicate that blockchain entrepreneurship has 12 fundamental roles in facilitating the transition from a linear to a circular economy while supporting the development of CSCs. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.

Critical success factors for implementing blockchain-based circular supply chain
(WILEY, 2022) Yasanur Kayikci; Nazlican Gozacan-Chase; Abderahman Rejeb; Kaliyan Mathiyazhagan; Gozacan-Chase, Nazlican; Mathiyazhagan, Kaliyan; Kayikci, Yasanur; Rejeb, Abderahman
The growing importance of the circular economy has emphasised optimal utilisation of resources within the constraints of economic development and protection of the environment. Digital technologies associated with Industry 4.0 such as blockchain facilitate the implementation of circular economy principles throughout the supply chain. However because blockchain implementation in the supply chain is still in the early stages real-world examples of the blockchain-based circular supply chains (CSCs) are limited. The principal purpose of the paper is to examine the critical success factors (CSFs) for implementing blockchain-based CSCs. Following that 10 CSFs are identified through a short systematic literature review and then the integrated fuzzy cognitive mapping and fuzzy best-worst method (FCM-FBWM) is implemented to examine CSFs for the blockchain-based CSC. The study's main findings demonstrate that network collaboration is the best CSF while the shared circular economy toolbox is counted worst of all. This research enriches the literature by identifying the CSFs for implementing blockchain-enabled CSCs to address the lack of a suitable decision-making framework that assists managers in comprehending how blockchain technology can be adopted in the circular economy context. Implications for theory and practice are also discussed offering new insights into the measures necessary to ensure successful blockchain implementations in CSCs.

(WILEY, 2020) Yigit Kazancoglu; Muhittin Sagnak; Yasanur Kayikci; Sachin Kumar Mangla; Kayikci, Yasanur; Kumar Mangla, Sachin; Kazancoglu, Yigit; Sagnak, Muhittin; Mangla, Sachin Kumar
Nowadays organizations have started to become more conscious about the environment in their supply chain operations. The greening process has guided supply chain practices into new ways of thinking according to green standards. The assessment of the performance of green supply chain management (GSCM) requires a holistic view for the whole supply chain. In this context given that becoming green in the operational side of activities is essential the performance assessment of operational activities also requires a holistic view to be taken. In this paper an attempt has been made to improve the performance of GSCM by examining and evaluating the green operational excellence of a hot dip galvanizing company. The framework includes several green operational excellence key criteria namely quality management efficiency management green production/manufacturing eco-packaging and green design. First the weights of the criteria and the respective measurements were found by fuzzy analytic network process. Then the overall operational performance score was found by a weighted scoring method. Finally both managerial and theoretical implications were suggested according to the outcomes and findings of the case study.

(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2021) Yigit Kazancoglu; Esra Ekinci; Sachin Kumar Kumar Mangla; Muruvvet Deniz Sezer; Yasanur Kayikci; Sezer, Muruvvet Deniz; Kayikci, Yasanur; Ekinci, Esra; Kazancoglu, Yigit; Mangla, Sachin Kumar
Supply chains are composed of multiple stakeholders who have complex interrelationships. In addition the forward and reverse flow of materials information human resources and finance occurs among different stakeholders in closing the loop of supply chains. Reverse logistics (RL) activities are gaining importance in terms of size and quantity due to both economic and environmental concerns. These flows in RL in supply chains are both dynamic and complex in nature. Further the environmental impact of RL activities has barely been considered in holistic way in available literature. In this study a system dynamics model has been developed to analyze and comprehend the green performance of RL activities by predicting the environmental impact of RL activities. The proposed model has been validated by a case study in the context of a food supply chain. In the company where the case study is carried out the environmental effects of RL activities have been analyzed. These activities in a food supply chain in terms of CO2 (carbon dioxide) NOx (nitrogen oxide) SO2 (sulfur dioxide) and PM (particulate matter) emissions have been predicted through a system dynamics model for the years 2020 to 2024. The proposed methodology is applied in a food supply context a major player in retail business especially in emerging economies. According to our findings the RL activities in a food supply chain can significantly contribute to green performance management by minimizing food waste and loss, hence the environmental impacts of such activities should be closely examined from a managerial perspective. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.

Purpose: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic created heavy pressure on firms by increasing the challenges and disruptions that they have to deal with on being sustainable. For this purpose it is aimed to reveal the role of the smart circular supply chain (SCSC) and its enablers towards achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for post-pandemic preparedness. Design/methodology/approach: Total interpretive structural modelling and Matrice d'Impacts Croises Multipication Applique' a un Classement (MICMAC) have been applied to analyse the SCSC enablers which are supported by the natural-based resource view in Turkey's food industry. In this context industry experts working in the food supply chain (meat sector) and academics came together to interpret the result and discuss the enablers that the supply chain experienced during the pandemic for creating a realistic framework for post-pandemic preparedness. Findings: The results of this study show that “governmental support” and “top management involvement” are the enablers that have the most driving power on other enablers however none of them depend on any other enablers. Originality/value: The identification of the impact and role of enablers in achieving SDGs by combining smart and circular capabilities in the supply chain for the post-pandemic. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.
