As climate change becomes more evident, raising awareness about sustainable supply chains is becoming a priority. This study focuses on the survey results on sustainable supply chains conducted in 2022 through a collaboration between universities in Latin America. More than a dozen universities collected a sample of over 400 surveys across ten countries. We applied the Partial Least Squares (PLS) regression model to respond to how the combination of a set of drivers and the characteristics of a company influence the level of commitment to sustainability, measured in terms of their existing measures, practices, and policies. As a result, we identified the level of understanding of sustainability for companies of different sizes and sectors and the drivers of businesses to design, implement, and control the outcomes of sustainable practices in their operations.enSustainabilitySupply chainSample (material)BusinessOrdinary least squaresAction (physics)MarketingDozenLatin AmericansEnvironmental economicsbook-chapter
