Malaysia has moved from agriculture-based economy to an industrial-based economy. As a consequence, manufacturing has increased markedly over the years that results 33.9% contribution to GDP. Literature have sho-wn that of manufacturing activities are responsible for air and water pollution, toxic emission, and chemical spills that have created environmental issues. Globalization has increased customers awareness about environmental issues that introduced business opportunities for environmentally conscious manufacturing industries. Hence, manufacturing industries are facing pressure from global market to improve their sustainability performance by implementing environmental management practices. This research aims to determine the level of Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) practices and investigate their effect on the environmental, · economic, and intangible performance. The research adapted survey research design using questionnaire to obtain data of GSCM practices from representatives of Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the study area.
