To prove this relationship, a survey has been conducted through an adopted questionnaire regarding this literature, in which employees associated with the manufacturing industries of Pakistan have been requested to share their experiences regarding the effect of green procurement practices on organizational performance. Then to identify the result of data gathered from respondents, some of the statistical instruments that have been used in this study include descriptive frequencies, reliability, correlation, regression, ANOVA, and coefficients to conduct the analysis within this study.
