One of the most important agendas of the world is the topic of global warming. In order to protect the ecological balance, all organizations turning towards using natural resources more effectively and not harming the environment. Increasing social expectation, legal regulations, and diminishing natural resources necessitate the dissemination of these orientations in all areas. Enterprises' supply chain management applications are also affected by this situation, and the concept of green supply chain management which reflects the environmentalist perspective has emerged. One of the most important stages of this chain is to find suppliers who care about the environment. Choosing a green supplier is of great importance for both the business and the environment. In this study, 11 environmental criteria were defined for green supplier evaluation and SWARA-TOPSIS integrated method was used to determine the most suitable supplier. Furthermore, a case study for an international yachting company operating in Turkey was also presented in this study. Based on the results of the study, it was seen that supplier 2 was the most suitable among five prominent alternative suppliers, and "environmental management system", "senior management's support and commitment", and "green image" criteria were ranked as the top three criteria among the 11 determined criteria.
全球变暖是世界最重要的议题之一。为了保护生态平衡,所有组织都在努力更有效地利用自然资源,同时不损害环境。社会期望的增加、法律法规的制定以及自然资源的减少,都需要在各个领域传播这些理念。企业的供应链管理应用也受到了这种情况的影响,反映环保观点的绿色供应链管理概念已经出现。这条供应链的最重要阶段之一是找到关注环境的供应商。选择绿色供应商对企业和环境都非常重要。在这项研究中,我们为绿色供应商评估定义了 11 项环境标准,并使用 SWARA-TOPSIS 集成方法来确定最合适的供应商。此外,本研究还为一家在土耳其运营的国际游艇公司进行了案例研究。根据研究结果,在五个主要的备选供应商中,供应商 2 是最合适的,在 11 个确定的标准中,“环境管理体系”、“高级管理层的支持和承诺”和“绿色形象”标准被列为前三项标准。
