supply chain management, green supply chain management, automotive industry, OEMs, HungaryAbstract
The aim of the paper is to analyse the green supply chain management (GSCM) practices of Hungarian automotive OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) – three car manufacturers and a truck manufacturer. For the analysis I performed a questionnaire survey that included the topics of motivation and barriers of GSCM, the methods applied, cooperation in the supply chain and green performance. The results show the importance of GSCM in Hungarian automotive OEM operation, the most improved fields and the most popular methods. We will see what the strongest motivation factors for green practices are, and what improvements the companies experience in theirperformance.
