Abstract in different language: Sustainability has gained increasing importance within the last decade. Therefore, the approach of sustainable development pushed its execution. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, published by the United Nations and signed by all members, offers a blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. Every business is encouraged to contribute towards a sustainable development. Especially Original Equipment Manufacturers observe the chance to add this to their brand value and push the implementation. To provide a comprehensive ‘green’ product or service, also suppliers need to achieve certain sustainability goals within their supply chain. Initiatives published in sustainability reports or on official websites of the top five automotive suppliers, according to Beryll’s top 100 Supplier study 2022, provides the basis for this article. The individual contribution and achievement towards the sustainable development goals has been analyzed by a qualitative comparative analysis. This analysis was performed using the desk method. Consequentially, it can be said that all investigated suppliers point out specific initiatives and actions towards the goals of sustainable development. Four out of five even provide a separate sustainability report which indicates that sustainability gains significant importance within the business as well as within the future strategy.
