  abstract = {This study examines the influence of green supply chain practices towards environmental development. There has been an increasing interest among scholars concerning the influence of green supply chain practices towards environmental development in the manufacturing industry due to its vast environmental effect and the rising pressure from consumers that companies should ‘go green’. A questionnaire was posted to 621 Malaysian ISO 14001 certified manufacturing companies. A total of 146 usable questionnaires were received and the response rate was 23.51%. This study identified that green purchasing and eco-design has a positive effect towards environmental development. These findings provide significant proof of the relationship between green supply chain practices and environmental development. Therefore, the acceptance and application of green supply chain practices in manufacturing firms should be required, not merely based on moral grounds, but also the progressive performance outcomes companies’ gain.
