Abstract

This paper examines the current state of supply chain operations at jinhuaii Q Enterprises, a leading company in the jinhuaii industry, and explores its transition towards a green, carbon-neutral supply chain. Given the growing importance of addressing climate change and the need for sustainable agricultural practices, this study investigates how jinhuaii Q Enterprises is adapting to the challenges of integrating green logistics and carbon neutrality in its supply chain. By conducting a detailed survey of the company’s upstream, midstream, and downstream supply chain segments, we identify critical issues such as fragmented planting distribution, low mechanization in processing, and the need for better sustainability in downstream sales channels. Furthermore, we propose strategic recommendations to enhance supply chain management, including the implementation of a carbon-neutral supply chain, improvements in deep processing technology, and optimizing collaboration across different sectors. This study provides valuable insights for both jinhuaii Q Enterprises and other agricultural businesses aiming to achieve sustainable growth and contribute to national carbon neutrality goals.
