This paper, based on a survey of manufacturing firms in south and central China regions, examines the relationship among green supply chain management, competitive advantage and firm performance. By factor analyses, the scale of manufacturing firm’s green supply chain management is obtained. The results show that green supply chain management can be conceptualized as a four dimensional variable: green manufacturing, green purchasing, green distribution and green logistics. Furthermore, after testing research hypotheses by LISREL, we find that these four constructs all have significant effects on competitive advantage, and that green manufacturing and green logistics have significant effects on firm performance. The implications for our findings are also presented.
