本研究的目的是探讨绿色供应商、绿色采购能力和绿色创新对企业环境绩效、竞争优势和经济绩效的影响。数据是从不同制造业从事采购相关活动的受访者那里收集的，而研究人员使用偏最小二乘结构方程模型（PLS-SEM）来分析变量之间的假设关系。结果表明，供应商绿色化对绿色创新和绿色采购能力有正向影响，而绿色创新和绿色采购能力则对环境、竞争优势和财务绩效产生正向影响。由于有关巴基斯坦供应商绿色化的研究数量有限，因此研究结果对未来的研究人员和管理者同样有帮助。除了向采购专业人士提供有关绿色供应链方向的宝贵信息外，本研究还建议制造商为供应商的绿色举措提供全面协助，同时强烈建议他们在产品开发阶段进行早期合作。

Data was collected from the respondents who are engaged in procurement related activities in different manufacturing industries whereas the researchers used partial least squares-structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) for analysing the hypothesised relationships between the variables. Results has shown that greening the suppliers has positive impact on green innovation and green purchasing capabilities whereas green innovation and green purchasing capabilities have a positive impact on environmental, competitive advantage and financial performance accordingly. Since there are limited number of studies on greening the supplier in Pakistan therefore the findings will equally be helpful for future researchers and managers. In addition of providing the valuable information to sourcing professionals regarding their directions towards green supply chain, the present study recommended manufacturers to provide complete assistance to the suppliers in their green initiatives whereas their early collaboration in product development stages is highly recommended.
