Abstract

Sustainable supply chains are now growing in importance as shareholders, employees and consumers question whether the company and its associate suppliers are socially and environmentally responsible. This fact has been seriously considered in the auto industry supply chain where companies seem to be concerned with the environment performance of their vendors. In order to verify to what extent the environmental requirements have been imposed by the auto industry companies to their suppliers, this paper examines the case of a first tier multinational Brazilian auto parts manufacturer. The case analysis was able to demonstrate that environmental requirements are of key importance in the evaluation, selection and maintenance of a supplier as part of the respective supply chain.
