Abstract: Kenya motor vehicle assemblers face several challenges following liberalization of the economy in the last decade of the 20th century. Domestic industries have been suddenly exposed to competition from imported products. On one hand there are prospects for faster development of manufacturing capabilities, but on the other, imports provide consumers with affordable alternatives. Despite adoption of re-packaging to gain a competitive edge, the performance of the motor vehicle assembly in Kenya is still on a downward trend. The aim of the study was the effect of re-packaging and to establish the effect of organizational policies on the relationship between re-packaging and supply chain performance of the motor vehicle assemblers in Kenya. The study was anchored on Theory of Constraints. The study used descriptive survey research design. The target population was 32 respondents from 8 firms in the motor vehicle assembly in Kenya comprising of staff from; logistics departments, sales departments, stores departments and factory departments. Census sample was adopted. Primary data was collected using structured questionnaires and secondary data through downloaded published audited financial statements. Pilot test was done on Associated Vehicle Assemblers. The study used Cronbach’s alpha to measure degree of reliability. The validity was tested through expert analysis and factor analysis. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. Descriptive statistics included frequencies and percentage. Inferential statistics consisted of multiple linear regression analysis and Correlation analysis. Findings were presented in tables. Regression analysis indicated that re-packaging had a significant effect on supply chain performance with a coefficient of 2.621 without moderating effect of organizational policies and 2.813 with moderating effect organizational policies. The study depicted repackaging explains 38.6% and 41.3% variation in supply chain performance without and with moderating effect of organizational performance respectively. The empirical results of this study would assist policy makers including the Kenya association of manufacturers to identify challenges that still affect the motor vehicle assemblers particularly in the area of reverse logistics. Therefore, the study concluded that repackaging had a positive and significant effect on supply chain performance. The study recommended that motor vehicle assemblers in Kenya should provide refund to products that are retuned due to wrong packaging.
