Abstract

Remanufacturing restores end of life products to almost new, it is a form of sustainability. The research set out to identify the ways remanufacturing can be encouraged as the Nigeria economy seeks to transition to a green economy. A questionnaire survey was used to establish the ways of encouraging remanufacturing in the Nigeria economy. Data analysis involving mean item score revealed the development of the take-back scheme, implementation of landfill bans of the end of life products, clear definition of remanufacturing, non-stringent legislation by the government on remanufacturing, development of infrastructure to support remanufacturing. The conclusion reveals that development of a take-back scheme, implementing of landfills, a clear definition of remanufacturing, non-stringent legislation by the government on remanufacturing and the development of infrastructure to support remanufacturing are the top five ways to encourage remanufacturing in Nigeria.
