- This study’s aim is to provide an analysis on the factors affecting effective implementation of sustainable procurement practices on the performance of a cable manufacturing company using CAFCA as a case study. Sustainable procurement involves purchasing decisions that meet an organisation’s requirements for goods and services while minimizing the impact on environment. At CAFCA Limited the research realised that the implementation of sustainable procurement was very slow and so hectic since it needs the whole organisation to corporate. A descriptive research was used in the form of a case study and the research found that legal and regulatory framework, structure of the organization and cost of sustainable goods and services are some of the factors that affected effective implementation of sustainable procurement practices. Recommendations made that CAFCA Limited should train its procurement officers together with their suppliers so that they understand sustainability issues. To add more the research suggested its wise for the organization to collaborate with its suppliers in order to get full control of suppliers” activities thereby getting a chance of implementing sustainability. Finally the study recommended that government should put extra effort to implement sustainable procurement practices. It should ensures that laws that governs sustainability are made available to organizations and those laws should be strict so that they will be prohibiting.
