The unit of analysis is management personnel, entry-level economists, and financial analysts. The structural equation modeling-partial least-squares analysis (PLS-SEM) approach was employed in this investigation. The authors validated the reliability and validity of constructs and indicators used to measure constructs by assessing measurement models. The measurement methodology has then utilized to confirm the study hypothesis. The study results demonstrate that infrastructure and green logistics performance have a beneficial influence on services trade and environment; besides that, service quality and company performance are also important factors in improving services trade in China. Furthermore, firm performance and service quality have been identified as strong positive mediators between Green logistic performance, infrastructure, and services trade & environment. This study has a theoretical contribution by introducing, verifying, and proposing a new measurement for three variables: infrastructure, green logistic performance, and services trade & environment. This study has numerous relevant and helpful implications for government agencies and departments. It will provide a pathway for the upcoming industry practitioners in terms of green logistic performance and service trade & environment. 2021 The Author(s).

Introduction
Logistics has evolved as a vigorous industry that is growing quickly on a worldwide scale and plays a crucial role in global trade and economic performance. It is a multifaceted component in trade operations that focuses on processes, competencies, and technologies. In particular, green logistics influence the country’s trade performance in terms of cost, consistency, duration, dependability, and customer service, which has an impact on export’s overall competitiveness in the global market (Arvis et al., 2007). Consequently, companies are constantly improving the quality of logistic activities, reducing cost, human resource management, adopting innovative technology and efficient procedures (An et al., 2021; Xialong et al., 2021).
