Abstract

This study investigates the role of Chinese manufacturing firms in implementing Environmental Management Systems (EMS) to understand how these practices impact export performance and the mediating and moderating effects of innovation. Using structural equation modeling on data from 226 Chinese manufacturing businesses, our findings indicate that EMS indirectly enhances export performance through innovation. This research provides significant contributions to general management by integrating EMS and innovation within the strategic framework of manufacturing firms, offering insights for enhancing competitive advantage and sustainability in global markets. The findings also present practical implications for managers to leverage EMS and innovation for improved business outcomes and sustainable practices.
