Abstract: This study investigated the effect of eco-design practices on the performance of Nigerian bottling company. specifically, the study evaluated the level of eco-design practices and its effect on the performance on Nigerian bottling company. The study employed a quantitative research method conducted in a cross-sectional approach to collect primary data using structured questionnaire from selected 202 employees involved in eco-design practices in Nigerian Bottling Company (NBC) using a simple random sampling technique. The collected primary data was analysed using both statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) partial least square structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). The findings of the study revealed that there is a moderate level of eco-design practices along the dimensions of design for raw materials, design for distribution, design for manufacturing, design for product use and design for end of life practices in the study area. The result of the test of hypotheses revealed a significant effect of eco-design on performance of NBC. However, there was no evidence of significant effect of design for product use on operational performance and design for raw material on environmental performance. the study recommends that firms should focus more on selection of materials with low impact and also endeavour to utilise products that are of low energy consumption to enhance their performance.
