Abstract:
Sugar is one of the most important commodities in Indonesia. An increasing demand for sugar makes sugar companies in Indonesia encounter some difficulties to fulfill it. Despite the high demand for sugar, sugar companies cannot provide enough products for the consumers due to several reasons. Thus, it is important to know the factors that can increase sugar production. This study conducted an empirical research from 34 managers working in Indonesia sugar companies to investigate the influence of stakeholder pressures, including farmers, competitors, government, customers, and employees, on the production and organizational performance. By using Smart-PLS to test the hypotheses, the results of this study proved that stakeholder pressures can significantly increase sugar production and organizational performance. These findings are expected to provide some important references for further academic validation. Moreover, the results of this study can be useful to academicians and manager
s, especially in the sugar industry, to mprove the effectiveness of production and overall performance.
