Keywords:
NAFDAC, Nigeria, Performance, Sustainability, Table WaterAbstract
This study examined the determinants of
sustainability performance in table water firms. A
cross-sectional survey research design was
employed. The study population included all
registered table water firms with the National
Agency for Food and Drug Administration and
Control (NAFDAC) in Delta and Edo States. A
total of 247 valid and usable questionnaires were
collected. Descriptive statistics were utilized to
assess respondents’ perceptions of the variables
of interest, while Pearson correlation coefficients
and multiple regression analysis were employed
to establish the relationships between the
research variables. The findings revealed that
sustainable product development, manufacturing
processes, packaging, and waste management
significantly and positively influence
sustainability performance. It is recommended
that governments develop policy frameworks to
support sustainability and create a conducive
environment for the sustainable production and
consumption of table water by establishing
standards and providing incentives for firms to
adopt sustainable practices in their operations.
