Abstract
In this chapter we compare the case studies of two social enterprises, one from the context of a developing country in India and another from the context of a developed country in Scotland. Through these case studies we illustrate how social enterprises integrate triple bottom line (TBL) aspects into their procurement or help other organizations in achieving sustainability in their procurement. These case studies highlight the importance of the social sustainability dimension, which has received relatively less scholarly attention in comparison to the environmental and economic sustainability dimensions.
