Employees are the most valuable assets in an organization. Their significance to organizations calls f or not only the need to attract the best talents but also the necessity to retain them for a long term. Therefore, th e general objective of this study is to establish the effect of corporate training on employee retention in Nigeria’ s food processing sector. The study adopted a descriptive research design and a total of 220 respondents were s ampled using a structured questionnaire. Data were analysed using regression and correlation analysis.
