Key GSCM practices are then identified using experts' opinions. Furthermore we collected responses from logistics companies to validate the conceptual framework using the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) method.FindingsThrough this study we found that GSCM practices significantly improve a firm's CNSC performance and the relationships between GSCM practices and CNSC performance are positively mediated by LE.Practical implicationsThe implications of the study suggest that logistics managers can benefit from the findings of this study to comprehend the impact of various GSCM techniques on LE and CNSC from the viewpoint of the NRBV paradigm.Originality/valueThis research provides valuable perspectives for managers and supply chain (SC) practitioners in their quest for sustainable and environmentally responsible SC operations through an extensive and novel analysis of the connection between GSCM practices LE and CNSC performance.Englishinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessGreen supply chain management practices, Carbon-neutral supply chain, Logistics eco-centricity, Green manufacturing, Investment recoverySUSTAINABILITY, ANTECEDENTS, DRIVERS, DESIGN, MODEL, SEM, DEAInvestment RecoveryGreen Supply Chain Management PracticesLogistics Eco-CentricityGreen ManufacturingCarbon-Neutral Supply ChainArticle
