Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) SMEs productivity SMEs Development policy Managerial experience-SME's Employment creation This book was sent to DRPS for publication The aim of this research was to assess the Factors affecting the performance of Small and Medium Enterprises (SME’s). The research is a cross-section research design employing the use of questionnaires. The research was conducted in Dar es Salaam regional in Tanzania, covering 110 small and micro-enterprises. The hypothesis was level of education of business owners and management experiences have a positive relationship with a enterprise’s performance except one variable, power shortage, that has a negative relationship. The results obtained show the existence of a positive correlation between variables. Although theoretically, power shortage has negative correlation with enterprise’s performance in this study the scenario is caused by the following factors that most of the salons now days are using other source of energy like solar and generators. So when the national grid goes off, the ventures shift to other sources and the one which don’t have other source of energy are closed up and customers go to those which have energy. Not only that, but also many saloons which are near the industrial areas and factories receive many customers during this time because people who are working in those industries and factories are out of their working area when national grid goes off so they get ample time for other activities near their working area. It shows that at that time they go out for hair cutting and dressing in salons which have other source of electricity. From the discussions with the owners and workers of the salons the researcher found that not only the mentioned and discussed factors affect the performance of small and medium enterprises, there are other factors which can be categorized as internal and external factors which other researchers can study in this areas Private 2026-06-30T10:33:38Z 2013 Book APA https://scholar.mzumbe.ac.tz/handle/123456789/2151 en_US application/pdf Mzumbe University. |
