Introduction
This study seeks to examine the interaction of manufacturing paradigms of lean, agile and their combination (leagile manufacturing) with plant performance of firms in developing countries. This is topic that has been debated in a number of previous studies (Arnab , 2012; Mattias & Jan , 2009; Helio, Goran, & Vaibhav, 2012; Thaeir, 2014; Rajesh & Charlene , 2007). Most of the contribution made in these previous works has majorly focused on experiences of firms in developed countries and more recently in key emerging economies such as those in Asia, USA and Netherlands. In this study, the focus is of a unique context of developing country firms in Africa and specifically Uganda. The study addresses the role of three major manufacturing practices: Agility and lean, and their hybrid; leagile manufacturing in battle to improve plant performance. The subsections that follows presents the background of the study, statement of the problem, objectives, research questions and hypothesis, conceptual framework, justification, significance and scope of the study
