Mapeto Bomani, Evelyn Derera · 2018 · DergiPark (Istanbul University)

Summary. Rural entrepreneurship in South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal province faces significant obstacles that slow small business growth despite municipal support strategies. This study examined three rural municipalities and found that while progress exists, municipalities must do more to stimulate the sector. Key recommendations include distributing land to small businesses, clustering enterprises for skills development and technology transfer, holding business exhibitions, and providing continuous mentorship and monitoring after training and financial support.
