ABSTRACT
This research work aims at critically evaluating the process of production and the extent to which the installed capacity of Nigerian breweries is utilized. The study traced the historical development of the company its range of product and the extent which its capacity is utilized.
In collecting data for the research, two sources of data collection were used. They are primary and secondary data sources. The primary data were got through personal outer view and observations.

2. Poor maintenance of frequent machine breakdown. Statistics are not kept on the performance of machine.
3. Inadequate of raw materials which is one of the factors to the full utilization of the installed capacity.
4. Power failure breakdown on the production process. Despite the installation of 15 – mega watts electric generating plant as a safeguard against intermittent power supply from national electric power authority (NEPA) the company still suffer from power supply problem.
Based on the above findings, the following recommendations were offered after analyzing.
1. The rate of breakdown of machineries will prevent the [purchase of out model. Recommendation of periodic maintenance of machine should be adopted to reduce incidence of breakdown.
