environmental issues because they not aware about green
logistics. The study investigated the Green Logistics
implementation in food manufacturing industries in Johor
Darul Takzim. Three objectives were tested using data
generated from research instruments. This thesis analyzes the understanding and awareness of green logistics, determine the barrier that prevent the implementation of green logistics and identify the ways to implement green logistics in food manufacturing industries in Johor Darul Takzim. A total of 47 food manufacturing companies selected to participate in this study from the Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers directory. The questionnaires were sent to a representative of each company. Result of data analysis showed the barrier that prevents food manufacturing companies in Johor Darul Takzim to implement green logistics is Lack of Organization Encouragement.
