Abstract: This paper utilises technological innovation to investigate and examine the impact of GSCM on the sustainable development of companies. To achieve this objective, we conducted a survey among manufacturing companies in China and analysed data collected from 451 firms. We employed statistical software such as SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 23.0. The Chinese manufacturing industry served as our research focus, and we conducted an empirical study on the effects of GSCM and sustainability performance, considering the mediating variable of technological innovation. Our findings revealed that technological innovation, acting as a mediator, has a partial mediating effect on the relationship between GSCM and sustainability performance. To continually enhance sustainable development, companies must persist in investing in scientific research, embracing cutting-edge technologies and talent, and reinforcing their competitiveness. The contribution of our research lies in expanding the GSCM framework by incorporating technological innovation into the theory, while offering valuable guidance through empirical evidence.
