On the other, the secondary data analysis using an econometric-view statistical package series 7. Furthermore, the secondary data described using descriptive statistics, ordinary least squared regression to explain the independent variable’s impact on the dependent variable, and unit root to check if the regression was spurious; and determine stationarity to test the null hypotheses. The study findings indicated a positive impact of vertical integration components on financial performance measures in Olam Nigeria Limited.
