This study was about the impact of motivation on the performance of employees in BAIL. The study involved an extensive coverage on how BAIL managed employee’s motivation in the day- to-day activities. It analyzed the motivational factors in BAIL; the relationship between motivation and performance of employees and the impact of motivation on employees’ performance in BAIL. The population sample involved employees of BAIL. A sample size of 25 employees which is equivalent to 40% of the total population was used. The researcher applied stratified sampling. The researcher randomly picked the sample from administration, finance, human resource, operations staff and employees at supervisory level in the different sections in the company which includes food; juice and confectionery. The data was collected using questionnaires and interviews which helped the researcher to obtain detailed information. The researcher also discovered the root causes of what was de-motivating employees at BAIL. Such as poor pay, lack of welfare services like housing facilities, transport, refreshment and also the poor communication which exists within the company. All these de-motivate employees and affect performance adversely. Basing on the above, BAIL should enhance employees’ salary, cater for employees’ welfare and establish proper communication channels within the company
