Abstract

The present study sets out to examine the correlation between green logistics management practices, cross-country ICT development status, and sustainability performance within the manufacturing industry of Ghana and Indonesia. Data was collected from a sample of 374 companies in Ghana and 379 in Indonesia. The results indicate a positive and significant association between green transportation, waste management, energy efficiency, sustainable packaging, and overall sustainability performance in both countries. The study also reveals that ICT development status has a positive impact on sustainability performance, and that the interaction between ICT development status and specific green logistics practices enhances this impact. These findings have practical implications for manufacturing firms, emphasizing the importance of implementing green practices and utilizing ICT development to improve sustainability performance. Furthermore, policymakers are encouraged to promote sustainable practices and invest in ICT infrastructure to support green logistics management. The study contributes to the international literature by providing empirical evidence on the relationship between green logistics practices, ICT development, and sustainability performance within the manufacturing sector.
