A steady flow, heat and mass transfer of an incompressible Jeffrey nanofluid over a horizontal stretching surface has been considered. This work is mainly focused on the effect of velocity slip, temperature jump, solutal slip and thermal radiation on flow, heat and mass transfer analysis. Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg-45 order method along with Shooting technique is employed to find the solution of the present formulation. Numerical solution values for dimensionless velocity, temperature and nanoparticles volume fraction for different flow pertinent parameters are recorded in several tables and plots. Further, a detailed study illustrating the influences of these parameters on skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers is conducted. From the obtained results one can see that, the velocity decreases with increase in velocity slip parameter and ratio of relaxation and retardation time, whereas, temperature and nanoparticles volume fraction increase. However, the thermal slip and concentration slip parameters decreases both temperature and nanoparticles volume fraction profiles.
