Green marketing initiatives focus on the values and efforts that various companies incorporate into their marketing portfolio. This study analyses the green marketing process and practices prevalent in the food industry of India. Green marketing, along with greening the product and the firm by converting the 4Ps (price, product, promotion and place) of marketing into 4Ps of green marketing, involves a careful understanding of consumer preferences and purchase decision process. An in-depth review of the recent literature indicates that most of the aspects of green marketing align synergistically with the framework in the developed nations and, though it may appear to lag behind momentarily, it is catching-up quickly among Asian countries, including India. With the conscious-consumer at the helm, green marketing is increasingly viewed as a relevant marketing strategy in India towards sustainable development of the food industry. A questionnaire-based survey method was used for the data collection from food companies in India. The data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis was also performed. It was found after analysis that the green marketing practices were positively associated with the product quality. It was also found that the green marketing practices have a positive significant impact on the environmental preservation. Hence, it can be suggested that green marketing practices lead to environmental preservation. In the long-term, both the consumers and the food processing industry stand to benefit greatly from such green marketing initiatives and awareness but the policies and strategies need to be formulated and implemented accordingly.

PurposeThis study aims to empirically test a comprehensive green supply chain management (GSCM) practices model. This paper incorporates green intellectual capital (GIC) and green supply chain orientation (GSCO) as antecedents to the successful implementation of GSCM practices and organizational performance as its consequence.Design/methodology/approachThis study has been conducted in the Indian food processing industry. The respondents of this study include 139 plant-level managers working in the food processing industry. The managers were contacted using a combination of personal visits, phone and mail. Structural equation modeling was performed using SPSS AMOS v26 to test the hypothesized model.FindingsThe findings of this study reveal that GIC and GSCO positively impact the implementation of GSCM practices. Further, GSCM practices improve economic and operational performance, leading to improved organizational performance.Practical implicationsThis study provides implications for managers suggesting that GSCM practices should be implemented in phases. The first phase must reflect the organization's commitment toward building GIC and the second phase must reflect managerial orientation toward implementation for GSCM practices.Originality/valueThis study adds to the existing literature by linking GIC to GSCM practices; second, this study provides a framework for implementation of GSCM practices in the food processing industry.

The Impact

PurposeThe study aims at understanding the impact of individual and bundle of human resource practices (HRPs) on employee competencies. It also compares the impact of the bundle of HRPs with individual HRPs on employee competencies to examine the synergy effect.Design/methodology/approachTo test the hypothesis, a sample of 229 respondents from the Indian food processing industry was taken. This included managerial and nonmanagerial personnel from four large scale food processing firms. The impact was analyzed through several structural equations.FindingsThe individual HRPs are positively related to employee competencies. Recruitment and selection have the least impact, and employee participation has the maximum impact on employee competencies. However, the bundle of HRPs has a positive and stronger impact on employee competencies than when they are studied individually.Practical implicationsThe results of this study bring a wide array of managerial implications for the food processing industry. It recommends the management to adopt proper and well-structured HRPs for the food processing industry.Originality/valueThis is one of the few studies that utilizes resource-based view (RBV) and human capital theory (HCT) for investigating the relationship between HRPs and employee competencies in the Indian context. It attempts to increase the understanding regarding an important strategic HR concept (i.e. bundle of HRPs) on employee competencies.

The Capital Structure

Despite numerous debates on the relationship between the capital structure and the firm performance, there is still lack of study focusing on the food processing industry, which is considered a nation contributor towards the economic growth especially in developing countries. Therefore, this study attempt to obtain empirical findings on the relationship between the capital structure and the firm performance among the food-producing firms in Malaysia for the year 2007 to 2016. The panel data analysis in this study has found that all variables in this study have a significant relationship towards firm performance. This study could contributes in such a way to fill the gap in the literature with regard to the study on capital structure and performance by highlighting such issue to the processing firm in Malaysia.
