Abstract
This research examined the financial–environmental performance of firms in the US food and beverage supply chain. Findings suggest that firms can be classified into four distinct environmental–financial categories: those that excel on environmental initiatives and perform well financially; those that perform poorly on both initiatives; those that perform admirably financially but poorly on environmental initiatives and; those that perform admirably on environmental initiatives but poorly financially. Overall, firms with higher environmental rankings tended to perform better financially than those ranked lower.
