Zusammenfassung englisch

This report presents exemplary roadmaps for the implementation of sustainable supply chain management practices in the cotton-garment, coffee, iron ore-steel and tin-solder supply chains. The roadmaps can assist companies in the sector and other stakeholders in advancing the environmental performance of suppliers and sub-suppliers primarily through incentives and cooperation. Each roadmap includes a description of an environmental target, tailored sustainable supply chain management approaches and instruments, key actors for implementation, interactions between instruments, and necessary framework conditions. The report concludes with a synthesis, identifying effective instruments and approaches across the supply chains studied.
