Abstract

•Investigating sustainability–resilience relationship at supply chain design level.•A multi-objective model that incorporates a sustainability performance scoring method.•A stochastic fuzzy goal programming solution method to solve the model.•An empirical case study of a sportswear manufacturing company.•Static and dynamic tradeoff analyses to design a “resiliently green” supply chain.

Sustainable supply chain management has become an integral part of corporate strategy for virtually every industry. However, little is understood about the broader impacts of sustainability practices on the capacity of the supply chain to tolerate disruptions. This article aims to explore the sustainability–resilience relationship at the supply chain design level. A multi-objective optimization model featuring a sustainability performance scoring method and a stochastic fuzzy goal programming approach is developed that can be used to perform a dynamic sustainability tradeoff analysis and design a “resiliently sustainable” supply chain. Important managerial and practical insights are obtained from an empirical case study.
