Abstract

The concept of sustainability, which is considered three pillars covering the concept of economic, environmental, and social factors, has become an effectual attempt to increase competitiveness for institutions. Being sustainable in the supply chain enables enterprises to respond to increasing customer needs in the most appropriate way. Today, traditional supply chains are replaced by sustainable logistics network designs due to environmental and social requirements. In this study, considering the uncertainty situation, the studies carried out on closed loop supply chains that are formed as a result of integration of forward and reverse logistics as well as forward and reverse logistics by itself are examined on the basis of sustainability factors. Sustainability sub-factors are also included in this study. As a result of the research, brief explanations can be seen about sustainable supply chain network under the uncertainty covering all three sustainability factors and gaps in the literature are clarified for future research opportunities.
