Abstract Sustainable development goals (SDGs), adopted by the United Nations in 2015, are gaining importance in all the industrial sectors. The attainment of SDGs will lead to simultaneous betterment of human lives, environment and economic prosperity. Therefore, the adoption and implementation of SDGs in the supply chain (SC) activities is the need of the hour. In this regard, there is a need to analyse the extant SC literature focussing on SDGs. This study reviews the articles on SDGs in SC published in last 6 years (2015–2021). A total of 144 articles are shortlisted for the analysis. Bibliometric and network analyses are performed to create an intellectual map of the field and to visualise the network among authors and keywords, respectively. Various emerging research themes are identified using bibliometric coupling analysis. The content analysis of the articles has been performed by considering different activities and stages of SC. Articles are also mapped on various dimensions of SDGs. The strategies associated with adopting sustainable practices in SC to achieve SDGs have also been elucidated. Finally, future research propositions have been presented which can help in achieving SDGs in the SC.
