The research enclosed entrepreneurship as determinant on MSE’s Performance. Through evocative statics it is manifested that motivation and self-drive, tolerance to work hard, creativity, flexibility and adaptability to new ideas were the main determinants that affects the performance of MSE’s in the studied area.
