Abstract
This study examined the relationship between information technology and
supply chain visibility of logistics firms in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
Objectives of the study were to examine how dimensions of information

visibility. Using a correlational research design, data were collected from 30
respondents across 15 logistics firms using structured questionnaire designed
in four response options. In the course of administering the questionnaires,
the researcher was able to retrieve 23 copies. Pearson Product Moment

findings revealed that there is a significant relationship between information
technology and supply chain visibility of logistics firms in Port Harcourt,
Rivers State. The study concluded that information technology enhances supply
chain visibility. Among others, the study recommends that logistics firms
