This study examines the mediating effect of the green reward system on the relationship between green training, and environmental performance in the Nigerian Food and Beverages Industry. A purposive random sampling technique was used to select 10 food and beverages industries located in Southwest Nigeria. a sample size of three hundred and forty-seven using a simple random sampling technique was selected for the study from the total population of Two thousand six hundred and forty-seven (2647). A structured questionnaire was adopted to collect the required data. Data were analyzed with the aid of structural equation modeling (SEM) using STATA version 15. The results show that green training (β = 0.429; p<.05) has a direct relationship with environmental performance. The findings of the study show that the green reward system (β =.489; p<.05) has a significant influence on environmental performance. Result confirms that a positive and significant relationship exists between green training and the green reward system. It was also revealed that green reward (β =.334; p<.05) partially mediates between green training and environmental performance. Consequently, the study recommends that the management of the food and beverages industry should continuously engage their staff members in green training. Moreover, compensation packages should be adapted to reward individual employees with a spectrum of green skills and environmental sustainability achievements. This will serve as a motivational tool that assists employees to perform environmental desire behaviors and committing to the organization.
