Sustainable logistics, also known as green logistics, focuses on processes that aim to improve the sustainability of supply chain operations from the acquisition of raw materials to the receipt of goods. Sustainable logistics is related not only to reducing environmental pollution, but also to corporate social responsibility. Saving resources, improving waste management, increasing productivity, reducing the negative impact of the organization's activities on the environment, increasing competitiveness and ensuring an ergonomic working environment are the main objectives of investing in green logistics. Consequently, this article analyzes green logistics principles and application of sustainable logistics in the Lithuanian and Latvian transport sector through the survey.
