- Description: Abstract: Lean manufacturing is one of the most stringent manufacturing productivity tools. Developed countries have aggressively pursued the strategy of implementing lean manufacturing and other productivity improvement tools, which has resulted in major improvement in their production output. Since the late 1990’s Nigeria manufacturing industry has suffered a decline in their production level which has resulted in low productivity in some factories or in some cases outright shutting down of the plant. The aim of this study is to investigate the implementation of lean manufacturing adoption in the Nigerian manufacturing industry. The study was conducted using primary and secondary data. The primary data were obtained through a questionnaire survey while the secondary data was obtained from peer-reviewed articles. Results emanating from the study revealed that most manufacturing companies are not familiar with productivity improvement tools such as lean and also there is a lack of technical know-how of implementing the tools.
