Objective: This study uses a bibliometric analysis of articles on sustainability dimensions in various ways to illustrate the current trends in business sustainability literature. Theoretical Framework: The concept of business sustainability has undergone significant development over time. Since the inception of the modern environmental movement and the implementation of environmental regulations during the 1970s, it has evolved into a strategic concern propelled by market forces. Method: The study was centred on mapping of keywords, an analysis of bibliometric authors' citations, an analysis of bibliometric papers' citations, an analysis of co-citations in bibliometric references, a cartography of co-citations in journals, and an analysis of qualitative content. The data has been extracted from a dimensional database that covers a wide range of data. It was extracted from 2012 to 2023 and examined using bibliometric analytical tools. Results and Discussion: A total of 318 sustainability-related articles were examined. VOSviewer was used to conduct the bibliometric study. There were determined to be six primary clusters: Business Sustainability, Social Enablement, Environment Social Governance (ESG), The People Profit Planet, Corporate Sustainability, Economic Value, and Ethics. Based on the findings, a search was conducted on the keyword "business sustainability" in a bibliometric analysis of a database comprising 318 documents. Out of these, 112 were articles, 85 were book chapters, 46 were preprint publications, 55 were proceedings, and the remaining 20 were edited books. Conclusion: Additionally, the findings show that the fields of social enablement, environmental sustainability governance (ESG), people-profit-planet (PPP), and corporate sustainability have seen a considerable increase in the number of research publications and citations, showing their significant contributions to the field of business sustainability study.
