Industry 5.0 (I5.0) builds upon 4.0 by emphasizing the role of workers in production processes and prioritizing socio-economic-environmental sustainability. It has been shown that I5.0 can enhance sustainability within supply chains (SCs). However, companies emerging economies, especially small medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMEs), which are crucial to developing face challenges implementing these concepts. These SMEs early stages adopting foster their SCs require urgent identification key enablers. Unfortunately, current literature lacks research on this topic specifically context economies. To bridge gap, study identifies enablers promote diffusion SCs, using China’s SME sector as a case study. The integrated framework for applying multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques aims assist decision-makers evaluating different options making optimal choices systematic structured manner when faced with complex situations. employs fuzzy Delphi method (FDM) identify 15 categorize them into three clusters. Grey-DEMATEL is subsequently utilized determine causal relationships, rank importance enablers, construct an interrelationship diagram. This found ‘availability functionality resources’; ‘top management support, active participation, effective governance’; ‘support from government, regulators, financial ‘introduction safer more efficient robotic systems human–robot interaction collaboration’ serve primary means resolving issues. Overall, helps managers, practitioners, policymakers interested applications chain.
