Abstract
Abstract In this paper, we evaluate how the categories and practices of sustainable supply chain management influence the principles of circular economy, through a case study in a fresh fruit supply chain whose production side is in Brazil and demand side is in the United Kingdom. We build an integrative model that relates these constructs to the reduction of loss and waste in food supply chains. The results show that the fresh fruit supply chain is oriented towards sustainability, based on pressures from stakeholders. Therefore, it is market-driven, which may explain the imperfect fit to the proposed model.
