Description The purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between cooperative norms and performance of supplier. We posited that cooperative norms exert their affect    on supplier performance by the establishment of two structural mechanisms (informational and operational linkages) in supplier-buyer relationship. Multiple regression analysis was used for the analysis of data from 59 respondents from Pakistani manufacturing firms. The results show that (1) cooperative norms have a significant positive and direct effect on supplier performance, and (2) structural mechanisms do not play any mediating role in relationship between cooperative norms and supplier performance. (3) Cooperative norms have a significant and positive effect on informational linkages. (3) The informational linkages have positive effect on operational linkages.
