going to waste. The implementation of SGD 12: Sustainable Consumption and Production

Patterns, sought to develop approaches to minimise the waste and preserve the environment for

future generations. This study will address SGD 12 along the importance of SC activities and the

development of sustainable supply chain, and the metrics that can be used to measure and report

the SGD milestones.

Study Objectives
