Small Business Enterprise plays a key role in expanding and diversifying industrial production and also contributes to such objectives as employment generation, poverty eradication, improved income distribution and fulfilling basic needs of most developing countries.
Small business enterprises was defined by the Central bank of Nigeria in its guideline that it is any business organization with an annual turnover of less than five hundred thousand naira. (CBN Guide (2009)).
Small Business Enterprise may be seen as a business which is independently owned and managed by an individual or family and which does not dominate its relevant market segment of interest (Griffin and Ebert, 1999). Unemployment is undoubtedly a big challenge to any government, development planner, the private sector and society at large.
