BACKGROUND: This study evaluated the causal connectivity between sustainable procurement orientation and firm performance in Ghana OBJECTIVES: This paper sought to determine if a causal connectivity existed between sustainable procurement orientation and firm performance in Ghana METHOD: This survey deployed an interviewer-administered questionnaire to obtain primary data from 500 sampled firm managers from private and public businesses, using random and purposive sampling techniques in Ghana. A Partial Least Square-structural Equation Model was used to analyse the dataset RESULTS: The findings established a direct significant causal relationship between sustainable procurement orientation and firm performance with multidimensional indicators, such as financial performance, operational performance and market performance MANAGERIAL IMPLICATIONS: Managers should appreciate and understand that firm performance can further be boosted if sustainable procurement orientation is envisaged as a critical resource ORIGINALITY/VALUE: This study deployed the reasonably new concept of sustainable procurement orientation on firm performance within the Ghanaian context. It is perhaps one of the first studies to address the nexus between sustainable procurement orientation and firm performance in Ghana
