Abstract

In recent years, there has been an increasing lack of social responsibility, such as low credibility of information disclosure, product quality defects, food safety, and other issues. This has had a certain impact on supply chain performance and has become an important topic of sustainable supply chain research. This study considers the relationship between logistics corporate social responsibility and supply chain performance. Structural equation models were built to explore the relationship between logistics corporate social responsibility, supply chain collaboration, and supply chain performance, and the bootstrap method was used to build path models to explore whether there is a mediation effect between logistics corporate social responsibility and supply chain performance. The results show that logistics corporate social responsibility has a significant positive impact on supply chain coordination, and logistics corporate social responsibility and supply chain coordination also have a significant positive impact on supply chain performance. Supply chain coordination plays an intermediary role between logistics corporate social responsibility and supply chain performance. Based on these results, it is suggested that logistics enterprises improve their awareness of fulfilling corporate social responsibility, improve transparency, strengthen supply chain collaboration, and accept the role of supervision and management at the government level.
