In actual practice the vast majority of manufacturing companies suffer excessive inventories than are necessary. Therefore, inventory control process is much more complex than the uninitiated understand. In fact, inventory control is perceived as little more than a clerical function.

Data was collected through the distribution of 50 questionnaires to the staffs of Tower Aluminum Nigerian Plc.
The two hypothesis formulated were subject to thorough tests and all two hypothesis tested were accepted. The respondents agreed that inventory control is a contributory factor to the profitability of manufacturing companies and as such proper control of inventory of manufacturing companies and as such proper control of inventory reduces the overall cost. Conclusion and recommendation were also made as to the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis such as putting in place all necessary features that inventory control needs to effectively achieve its purpose in a manufacturing organization.
