5.0 Support for SME development in Tanzania: Support for Growth-oriented Women Entrepreneurs in Tanzania, 2005
The Government of the United Republic of Tanzania began its first major attempt to
promote the small industries sector as far back as 1966 with the formation of the National
Small Industries Corporation (NSIC) under the National Development Corporation
(NDC). The emphasis of the NSIC was to establish small industrial clusters, essentially
training-production workshops, which in 1973 were taken over by the Small Industries
Development Corporation (SIDO), and continue to operate. Development partners,
donors and NGOs have over the years influenced the regulatory reform process in
creating the right regulatory framework and institutions, and developing sectoral policies
and programmes. They have also implemented, and continue to implement, grassroots
skills training and micro-finance programmes to encourage income-generating activities.
It would appear that an inventory of these past and current MSME development
initiatives has not been compiled, nor has there been a systematic effort to learn lessons
from project assessments. This has limited the exchange of “good practice” models and
approaches.
In September 2002, the University of Dar es Salaam completed a report on recent
donor efforts on behalf of the DAC Private Sector Development Group Tanzania and the
International Working Group for SME Development of the OECD Committee of Donor
Agencies (Olomi and Nchimbi, November 2002). This review took stock of these efforts
and drew up lessons learned and best practices to guide future interventions by
governments, donor, and other agencies.23 The report noted that efforts should be made
to improve coordination between donors supporting the SME sector. Achieving
coordination at the governmental level is also seen as a critical factor in improving the
policy and programme environment for MSMEs (MIT, 2002).

Re: YOU CANNOT AND SHOULD NOT DO IT ALONE
- Hi Barry,
I couldn't agree more. Support is so important, even if it's just encouragement. But, having others to turn to for guidance and help can be very beneficial in moving your business forward.
Re: THE SECRET TO SUCCESS IS ALL IN YOUR HEAD...RIGHT NOW!!!
- Hey Trent,
Thanks . . . .
I believe strengthening one's resolve depends on 3 things :
1- Support
2-What you read.
3-How you talk to yourself.
How about sharing how you maintain your persistence?
How about everyone else? I really am curious.
Thanks
Barry
