The purpose of this investigation is to demonstrate CSR affects a company's ability to manage its green supply chain. This research also confirms that environmental turbulence moderates the impact of CSR on GSCM.The current study's hypothesis was developed using stakeholder theory and resource-based view theory.Hattar Industrial estate's manufacturing companies provided the information used in this study.Empirical evidence supports the positive impact of CSR on the GSCM. Furthermore, the findings show that environmental instability greatly reduces CSR's impact on GSCM. This study has some valuable implications for manufacturing companies as; to enhance more in GSCM are need to focus more on CSR activities both external and internal CSR activities.
