Abstract

Objective: The present study aims to explore the relationships between big data analytics capability, circular economy practices, and SMEs’ sustainable performance in Pakistan. It investigates notable factors determining SMEs’ sustainable performance, including employees’ perceived usefulness, data-driven culture, and leadership competency mediating the mentioned relationships. Method: The study employs quantitative research based on a positivist philosophy orientation. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed among the employees of 350 SMEs operating in Pakistan’s different regions. Findings: The study's results demonstrated the direct effects of big data analytics capability on sustainable performance, employee perceived usefulness, and data-driven culture. Additionally, circular economy practices influence sustainable performance; employee perceived usefulness and leadership competency. Finally, the results highlighted that each relationship is subject to partial mediation, which indicates the role of employee-perceived usefulness and data-driven culture in the relationship between big data analytics and sustainable performance and employee-perceived usefulness associated with the relationship between circular economy practices and sustainable performance. Novelty:The present study highlights that all three of the previous topics are consistent and significantly contribute to the existing literature by providing a model with the main factors that determine SMEs’ sustainable performance, which can be sufficient for countries’ developing economies. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2025-09-01-020 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Objectives: The objective of this study was to examine the impact of organizational green culture (OGC) on green innovation (GI) and sustainable entrepreneurship practices (SEP), which collectively enhance green performance (GP) in Pakistani food chain sector small and medium enterprises (SMEs). This research investigates how green innovation and sustainable entrepreneurship practices mediate each other towards achieving better green performance. Method: The authors chose deductive quantitative research along with Google Forms-based online surveys to gather data from 239 SMEs using convenience sampling. Structural equation modeling through SmartPLS detected all relationship effects between constructs within the research model. Findings: The study confirms that organizational green culture leads to increased GI and SEP, which in turn contributes to enhanced GP, while SEP operates as the essential mediator between OGC and GP in establishing how cultural values become sustainable practices and environmental improvements. The research merges OGC and innovation aspects with sustainability practices and demonstrates their effects on SMEs through empirical research. Novelty: The research uncovers SEP as a key connection between green culture and performance, which provides business solutions for SMEs that want to merge cultural elements with innovative approaches for sustainability. The research explores green entrepreneurship within emerging markets by demonstrating that developing an organizational green culture leads to creative processes that create sustainable outcomes that enhance environmental results. The paper makes an exceptional contribution by examining two distinct mediators: green innovation and sustainable entrepreneurship practices.
