Organizations strive to implement sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) practices and technologies to improve their economic, social, and environmental impacts. However, implementing SSCM is challenging. Therefore, it becomes crucial to understand how organizations may overcome these challenges and enable successful implementation and adoption of SSCM. This study reviewed literature to identify the barriers hindering SSCM implementation and their subsequent overcoming strategies. Overall, 80 barriers, divided into nine categories, were encountered. These comprise technological, economic and financial, supplier-related, information-related, market and networking, human resources, social and cultural, regulatory and institutional, and organizational barriers. Moreover, 40 strategies that can help overcome these barriers were reported and resumed in this study.
