The Liberalization, Privatization & Globalization of India in early 90s provided a number of opportunities for foreign companies to venture onto Indian soil. It provides a right platform for the companies to tap into the potential with the markets. As a result, there was an economic growth which created a huge demand for various goods and services resulting in the increase in the production and thereby the logistics activities like Inventory, Material Handling, Packaging, Storage and Transportation and impacted the goods and services consumed by customers. However, this also led to environmental problems like Global Warming resulting in large scale emissions which prompted the Government, Corporates, and Social Groups to take proactive actions to counter this threat. Green Logistics is the right platform for solving the problems of Manufactures and Corporates and reducing the emission levels. Green Logistics can also help the Logistics Manager to focus on overall efficiency of Supply Chain Management. Keeping in the mind the research objectives of this study, this paper uses exploratory and a descriptive research design. A Survey Method is used by personal interaction.
