This study aims to investigate the apparel supply chain’s green motives and green programs and propose a relevant model based on the result. The systematic literature review was carried out in three stages based on the PRISMA Protocol. The study obtained 409 articles from the Scopus database, and after conducting the filtering stages, 35 articles were yielded and analyzed concerning the research questions.
