ABSTRACT
This research work investigated with particular reference to lever Brother Nigeria Plc the existing cost minimization strategies in operation, their effectiveness as veritable cost minimization strategies; and above all, how much or less they have contributed to minimization of the cost of production of the company. They study revealed that the company adopted and used the following cost minimization strategies among others; staff training, good inventory management through economic order quality model; maintenance of low labour turnover rate; strict supervision of activities; responsibility accounting system, turnaround strategy and periodic preparation of cost analysis and investigation of material variance. The strategies have not been without problems. It was found that staff members who have been denied some welfare facilities and fringe benefits as a result to the cost minimization strategies in vogue gave developed a lukewarm attitude to work and a declining moral for productivity.
Base on these findings, it is concluded that these strategies adopted by lever Brother Nigeria Plc are suitable for modern day productions for a manufacturing company of its caliber.
