This study explicates the effect of green supply chain management on corporate sustainability performance in Indonesia. We conducted an online survey to collect data from targeted respondents with three years of experience on average in the supply chain management field. The respondents consist of company managers, public accountants, public sector accounting managers, and accounting lecturers. We analyzed the data by implementing ordinary least square regression procedures. Our study results suggest that green purchasing, green manufacturing, and internal environmental management can hardly improve economic performance, social performance, and environmental performance. However, strong evidence shows that green distribution triggers a positive effect on economic, social, and environmental performance. Our study implicates that both private sector companies and public sector organizations in Indonesia, as an emerging country, should consider green supply chain management as a necessity. More organizations should pay more attention to apply the green supply chain framework to nourish the competitive advantage.
