Abstract

Faced with the dual pressures of increasingly scarce global resources and worsening environmental problems, achieving rational allocation of resources and sustainable development of supply chains has become a key challenge for enterprises. By improving resource utilization efficiency and reducing unnecessary consumption, resource optimization can help reduce operating costs and also promote environmental protection. The sustainable development of the supply chain requires balancing corporate social responsibility and environmental impact while pursuing economic benefits. This article analyzes the current situation and challenges of resource optimization and sustainable development of supply chains, pointing out issues such as resource waste, high carbon emissions, and supply chain vulnerability. By implementing green and low-carbon supply chains, enhancing supply chain resilience, and strengthening stakeholder cooperation, enterprises can maximize resource utilization, reduce the burden of environmental pollution, and improve the stability and risk resistance of their supply chains, thereby contributing to the achievement of sustainable development goals.
