Abstract
The growth of any logistics firm and its ability to compete globally with developed nation’s businesses depends on effective information flow. Information flows in the manufacturing sector is vital in enhancing both economic development and material flow in today’s competitive economy. The manufacturers had to reexamine their method to ways of getting efficient, quality and up-to-date information within the enterprises and ways of dispatching the information. Sadly, most logistics firms in Nigeria are among companies who are slow to realize the benefit of new information flow on modern logistics management. Therefore, this article is built on a review of literature on the influence of effective and new information flow on logistics management in Nigeria. This study elaborates the benefits of effective and competent information flow to Nigerian firms, types of logistics information, and influence of information flow to the management of logistics firms.
