Using a mixed-method approach combining bibliometric analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and structural equation modelling (SEM), the study identifies internal and external factors affecting CSCM implementation. Key drivers include employee involvement, corporate social responsibility (CSR), long-term sustainability orientation, and supplier cooperation, while major barriers encompass traditional organisational culture, inadequate information systems, and poor infrastructure. The findings contribute to both theory and practice by highlighting how CSR, cultural context, and regulatory frameworks uniquely shape CSCM in emerging markets. The study provides actionable insights for policymakers and industry leaders aiming to promote sustainable and circular business practices in developing economies.159enCircular EconomySupply Chain ManagementEmerging MarketsJordanEmbracing circular economy in FMCG supply chains: drivers and challenges in JordanPhD, doktori értekezésEmbracing circular economy in FMCG supply chains: drivers and challenges in JordanGazdálkodás- és szervezéstudományokTársadalomtudományok
