THE IMPACT OF ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS ON MANUFACTURING COMPANIES (A CASE STUDY OF SEVEN UP BOTTING CO. PLC ENUGU PLANT)

CHAPTER ONE

1.1 INTRODUCTON

The first of through of introduction manufacturing companies into various human endeavours was first mulled by the early English scientist. The aim was to ascertain productivity   and quality of goods and services.

Manufacturing may be expressed as a system of changing/converting raw materials into a finished product suitable for consumption. It involves activities in changing the reverse formation of raw materials to the formation through the use of machines.

In addition, manufacturing is rather a business oriented operation which is of barter mechanical and technical. It is mechanical because without machines no operation could be run since each stage of production of the machine defect on one and another for effectiveness on the sense that, machines and  its operational system require adequate techniques for best handling.

A manufacturing companies consist of number of firm producing commodities which are broadly related, through its not often easy to know the difference between one company and the other, for example, the drinks industry the motor industry, cotton industry, etc.

This example gives a broad indication of the branch of production concerned.

In great Britain, the rationalized industries such as electricity, gas production have been prior attention due to the grate impact it has on national economic growth. Even in the ancient days, before the advent of modern technology, our locally but the present generation of modern technology, has finally made things easy, that is to say increasing advancement is noted. The gift and blessing of the time whereby the production of the good and things were gradually available in greaten quantity and quality to reduce scarcity of choice.

Many professional jobs today, manufacturing companies has been nucleus without the Nigerian economy has its life in the area of making goods available in the high quality, so as to meet the basic requirement of a growing economy, most especially in the area of development manufacturing has a dissimilar branches and many states which includes, the composition of the various form of raw packaging for successful operation. Each of the stage involved requires specialist. The branches with their process do complicate the idea but proper utilization of the discoveries of techniques and method will actually lead to                                                                                                              successful occupation.

Manufacturing is achieved by mechanical devices which operations are either automatic or manual.

The combined machines involved in the manufacturing process are so designed in a way that different output be produced to one appreciate patterns.

Manufacturing is universally recognized because of its function, which result to a great high level of goodwill to most companies. For example, seven up bottling co. plc, levels brother Nig. plc, U.A.C plc and host of others.

1.2     STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM.

The study shall limit itself on the aspect of the economy due to the non-availability of network data for limitation imposed on the researchers by the time and finance. Interview was restricted to the human resources department. The limitation to this research work also includes the factors met in our environment among which are.

Factor altitude of respondents. Others are educational background of most of the junior workers, most of the are semiliterate and illiterates while this posed a difficult ton the research in the course of collecting fact on the topics. Also we cannot rule out the significant percentage of the people living in the environs
