Abstract: Handling the issue of “Greening” the supply chain becomes a
must in the recent literatures of the Supply Chain Management (SCM). Indeed,
several practical studies have been implemented to show that better performance
can be linked with “Greening” SCM practices. Consequently, several studies have
also discussed numerous issues related to the technical barriers of practicing
Green SCM (GSCM). The purpose of this paper is to investigate these Technical
Barriers (TBs) using the Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM) within the
context of Saudi Arabian dairy food industry. It is found that the difficulty
in transforming positive environmental attitude into practical initiatives
represents one of the issue. However, it is an issue that is, in fact, resulted
from the existence of other barriers that are negatively influencing GSCM
within the context Saudi Arabian dairy food industry.
