Abstract

The measurement of the performance of supply chain management in the food industry is mainly focused on the analysis of environmental, social and economic aspects. However, reducing all the dimensions of the sustainable supply chain to a few units of analysis is a task that represents great difficulty in the field of administrative sciences. 

In this regard, the central objective of the analytical development presented below is to identify the different dimensions present in the measurement of the performance of the management of the sustainable supply chain in the food industry through the literature review in the field. 

As part of the results, four central axes of the analysis were identified: use of raw materials, waste, the measurement of environmental impact and risk management. Each of the identified dimensions is characterized by presenting multiple methodologies and approaches for measuring performance and contributing to the greater and better understanding of the field.
