Abstract From the sustainable supply chain management perspective, this study conducts a qualitative exploration of 6 enterprises and an empirical test of 295 manufacturing SMEs to analyze the main influencing factors of frugal innovation in manufacturing SMEs. Conclusions are drawn as follows: In the internal management of sustainable supply chain, internal environmental management and internal social responsibility management promote enterprise frugal innovation; In external management of sustainable supply chains, sustainable cooperation between firms and suppliers promotes frugal innovative behavior, but monitoring and assessing supplier sustainable practice does not affect firms’ own frugal innovative behavior; Firm size only plays a positive moderating role in the influence of internal management of sustainable supply chains on frugal innovative behavior.
