CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

  • BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY

The Nigeria federal, state and local government have been taking the development of industries as a master of importance. The government is encouraging the establishment of small scale indigenous industries by creating favourable condition to the industrialist especially by granting them short and long term loans. The government also exempts the infant industries from taxation and grant loans to them for further establishment.

In view of the above, it is observed that many industries have been in existence for quite a while. Some of such industries are soap and detergent industry, leather factory, Tailoring, weaving to mention but few. The effort of government in encouraging the citizens of Nigeria to engage upon primitive investment has led to the

 

establishment of many local industries by the people of Nigeria. The government also educates the citizens through social and political means to enhance the nation becoming great through economic self reliance, industrialization that will make Nigeria economy less dependent on foreign Nations. However, all these can only be achieve, if the government will provide some more favorable terms, like provision of more loans, free education and  as well as provision of infrastructural facilities to enhance and encourage a large number of small scale industries.

However, capital among other is very important in the development of small scale industries.

Due to the inability of small scale business to secure these necessary factors, there is need for government as well as investors to explore ways to stop the wave of industrial failure in other to build standardized structures that will enhance effective growth and development in businesses.

This study would provide information on the role and important of small scale business within the country and as a result, will stimulate and encourage the industrious individual to invest their resources for national growth and development.

  • HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF GLOBAL SOAP AND DETERGENT INDUSTRY, ILORIN AT KWARA STATE, NIGERIA.

The Global soap and Detergent industry is sited along Asa-Dam Road, Ilorin, Kwara State.

This company which specialized in production of soap, extra powder flash, Hi-clean bar, vogue, Grand Detergent Bar, Bold Detergent (10kg, 5kg, 2kg, 1kg) and wash right Detergent etc.

The Company was incorporated in October, 1984 by the Federal Government of Nigeria under the commerce and industry Act in 1985, all the plants were received into the site and the process of installation started immediately.

industry in the state capital for the purpose of reducing the problems of unemployment within and outside the state.

However, the materials used in production are imported material, but research has been going on and very soon, local raw material will be in replacement, some of the materials were specifically made for Doyin Groups of Companies from overseas e.g. Blank Corp, Sodium syndicate.

In the organizational chart, showing departments and staff position, they have the general manager as the head of the industry. The sole responsibilities of the whole operation rest on him. He is the only person that gives orders on any important issues, whenever there is any purchase or large quality of raw materials involving thousands of Naira, he assign or signs it. After the General Manager are technical, production and the quality control manager.

The technical manager has under him, electrical Engineering Department and the stores, the store supervisor report directly to the technical manager when there is need to purchases costly equipment or tools.

The production manager has under him, the raw material stores, the central stores and warehouse where they keep the finished products. The raw material that are always kept in the store for production includes.

i    a.     Flash cartons for packing the detergents in cases

The S.T.P.P (Sodio Tripolifostato) is in a separate tank with the provision of tap, so that as they are being dissolved by water before some is passed to the next machine where the operation starts. The sodium syndicate is used to neutralize the acid of the detergent during the production.

Glove, Bank Corp and Costic Soda are also part of the raw materials used in production of the detergent and during this period. it is in white colours, the blue dye will be supplied so that it will change the white colour to blue. It depends on the colour of the

 

detergent they want to produce perform is then supplied at the final stage so that the detergent will give a passive odour, this will also be shown on the clothes.

The quality control manager in collaboration with design and engineering department works on quantity of chemical to be used.

The amount of the qualities control department.

As it is, the practiced in all organization, the stores department will supply all the documents connected with the purchase of raw materials and stationeries to the account department so that, the necessary funds are given to them to buy from outside the organization.

All these document are not given to the accounts department for money alone, but for the purchase, and also to use it for the

 

preparation of the annual budget.

In every department there is a supervisor, making the affairs of the clerks and other cleaners, so that the information flow upwards from the cleaner to supervisor and to different head.
