Over the past several decades, considerable changes have taken place which have not only impacted the economy but have also transformed the supply chain. With the supply chain being revolutionized, demand for products has escalated, leading to a simultaneous increase in production. This has led to an increase in the utilization of raw material, energy and water consumption as well as adverse GHG emission, all resulting in detrimental environmental issues and climate change. The transport and logistics industry are known to account for a significant amount of GHG emissions globally. As such, knowledgeable consumer, together with government, non-government organizations and stakeholder have added pressure on logistics service providers to implement green strategies to mitigate their carbon footprint. However, the extent to which LSPs have heeded the call is unknown. Hence, the objective of this study is to investigate the green strategies implemented by LSPs and their impact on performance. A descriptive survey research design was followed. Data was collected from people working for LSPs in South Africa. Route planning and load consolidation were two most implemented green strategies among LSPs. The implementation of the green strategies was found to be positively correlated with economic, environmental, and operational performance of LSPs. In addition, implementation of the green strategies accrues benefits such as high asset utilization, customer satisfaction and reduced GHG emissions. The study reveals that green strategies implemented by LSPs are in nascent stages in emerging economies compared to those in developed economies.
