Despite the vast literature on green purchasing practices and sustainability, the role of an organization's green capabilities in defining green purchasing practices for triple-bottom-line performance has received limited attention. This research intends to empirically evaluate the impact of green capabilities on green purchasing practices to boost the triple-bottom-line performance of manufacturing organizations. We analyzed 386 manufacturing organizations' responses using the covariance-based structural equation modeling approach. The results indicate a positive correlation between green capabilities and purchasing habits; however, green innovation capabilities did not establish a statistically meaningful correlation. Additionally, green buying strategies have significant favorable associations with the triple bottom line of performance. The results contributed to the advancement of the resource-based-view theory by empirically examining the impact of green capabilities and green purchasing practices in influencing the triple-bottom-line performance of manufacturing firms.

绿色能力、绿色采购和三重底线绩效：引领环境可持续发展

尽管有大量关于绿色采购实践和可持续性的文献，但组织的绿色能力在定义绿色采购实践以实现三重底线绩效方面的作用却受到了有限的关注。本研究旨在实证评估绿色能力对绿色采购实践的影响，以提高制造组织的三重底线绩效。我们使用基于协方差的结构方程建模方法分析了 386 个制造组织的响应。结果表明绿色能力与购买习惯之间存在正相关关系；然而，绿色创新能力并未建立具有统计意义的相关性。此外，绿色购买策略与业绩的三重底线有显着的有利关联。
