Life Cycle and Supply Chain Information in Environmental Management Accounting: A Coffee Case Study

This case study illustrates the application of environmental management accounting in a medium-sized coffee refining and exporting enterprise in Southern Vietnam, with the example of the Neumann Gruppe Vietnam Ltd. It examines the relevance of environment-related supply chain information derived from life cycle assessments for environmental management accounting and reveals possibilities to improve eco-efficiency at the site level and for its supply chain.
