Abstract:
The study examined the effect of sustainable supply chain management practices on competitive advantage of brewery companies in Anambra State, Nigeria. The cross-sectional survey research design method was adopted for the study. A sample size of 152 employees of the selected companies was randomly selected from the total population of 250 by using Krejcie and Morgan (1970) sample size determination table. The stratified random sampling technique was used for the study. The study used structured questionnaire as instrument of data collection. To validate the instrument for data collection, content validity was adopted for the study. To establish the reliability of the instrument, a test-retest method was employed. This study employed descriptive statistics and Correlation statistical technique. Findings showed that there is a strong and positive correlation between supply chain collaboration (r = 0.537, p < 0.01), corporate social responsibility (r = 0.325, p < 0.01) supply chain transparency (r = 0.573, p < 0.01), reverse logistics (r = 0.554, p < 0.01) and competitive advantage of brewery companies in Anambra State, Nigeria. The study concluded that sustainable supply chain management practice has significant relationship with competitive advantage of brewery companies in Anambra State, Nigeria. The study recommended amongst others, that sampled companies should evolve tracking systems to track products throughout the supply chain, providing visibility into the origin, movement, and handling of goods.
