ABSTRACT 

This research work aims at critically evaluating the process of production and the extent to which the installed capacity of Nigeria Breweries utilized.  The study traced the historical development of the company, its range of production 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 gotten through personal interview and observation, while secondary data were collected from Nigeria Breweries Plc Enugu and other relevant materials and information centres.
From the analysis of the data collected, the following findings were made.
1. There is problem with the acquisition of the spare pars because of the prohibitive price of foreign exchange.
2. Poor Maintenance of frequent machine breakdown, statistics are not kept on the performance of machine.
3. Inadequate raw material which is one of the factors of the full utilization of the installed capacity.
4. Power failure breakdown on the installed capacity, their installation of 15mega watts electric generating plants as a safeguard against intermittent power supply from Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) the company still suffers from Power Supply problem.
Based on the above findings the following recommendation were offered after analyzing.  
1. The rate of breakdown of machines will prevent the purchase of out model, recommendation of periodic maintenance of machine should be adopted to reduce incidence of breakdown.
2. There is high cost of certain items like bear which makes the consumptions low. It was recommended that the company should be doing a objective pricing of its goods that it does not price itself out of the market.
3. There is not enough training and development of staffs for proper handling of the facilities of production industries it was recommended that enough training and development of staff should be provided by the company. It will enable them to shift emphasis on keeping track of manufacturing line cost of facilities of production.
