The purpose of this article is to analyze the existing relationship between Green Supply Chain Management practices and the economic and environmental performance in large companies. For this, it was considered a sample composed by the largest companies in southern Brazil. The questionnaire used is composed of 46 questions and was adapted from the studies of Zhu and Sarkis (2004) and Sharma et al. (2017). The management practices of the supply chain and environmental and economic performance were analyzed. The results showed that cooperation strategies have not been widely used by the companies and that in practice internal management differs in relation to the postulates of the environmental policy and the expressed strategic objectives. In relation to the concept of sustainable production, there is a great concern to adhere to ecological practices either internally or with suppliers. Furthermore, the variables involving clients and reverse logistics have not presented enlightening results. The companies studied showed to use more prominently the practices of internal environmental management, sustainable manufacturing and ecodesign. The study also makes it possible to conclude that Green Supply Chain Management Practices had no impact on economic performance
