The study used both primary & secondary sources of data collection. Questionnaires were used to elicit the views of the respondents on whether inventory control has effect on the profitability of a business organization. Correlation coefficients were used in analyzing the data collected. Some of the problems facing soft drinks companies are those of procurement of raw materials, inventory management and control. These come about as a result of the inability of these companies to calculate the economics order quality and the various control levels used in the management of stock. The major purposes of this research on inventory control system are:
