Abstract
The competitive business environment has made market intelligence a necessary activity of business organisations striving for continuity. A company that adopts a resource-based approach is not yet well equipped for competition without giving due regard to change, a prominent feature of the business environment. This study investigated how market intelligence generation, conceptualised as customer intelligence generation and competitive intelligence generation, influenced the performance of two food and beverage manufacturing companies in Oyo State, Nigeria. The study was conducted based on a survey research design involving 163 employees of the companies. The questionnaire was used for data collection. Data analysis was based on descriptive and inferential statistics. Descriptive statistics produced mean and standard deviation values to statements relating to market intelligence generation and company performance while inferential statistics involving regression analysis was the basis for testing the hypotheses of the study and for determining the effects of market intelligence generation and its components on company performance. The results revealed that market intelligence generation and its components, customer intelligence generation and competitive intelligence generation, had positive effects on performance. However, customer intelligence generation exhibited a higher positive effect on performance. The results established that market intelligence generation was a means of projecting business continuity and enhancing the performance of the studied companies. The recommendation that followed indicated a need for the studied companies to put in more effort in competitive intelligence generation especially in relation to researching competitors’ strengths and weaknesses in order to increase the chances of increasing their market shares.
