description This study examines the effect of knowledge management process capabilities on the competitive advantage of the Food, Beverage and Tobacco (FOBTOB) firms in Nigeria. A survey research design was employed, with a structured and self-reporting questionnaire as a tool for data collection. Stratified sampling technique was used in the determination of three hundred and sixty (360) sample respondents, from a population of 1718 management staff of the FOBTOB firms under study. 234 copies of the questionnaire were returned and found usable, hence, formed the actual sample size for this study. Data obtained were analyzed using tables, frequencies and percentages for descriptive, while t-test, simple and multiple regressions and Pearson Product moment correlation analyses were used as inferential statistics for testing of hypotheses. The findings of this study show that knowledge management process capabilities positively and significantly affect competitive advantage with R2 = .299; F=24.397; p
