SME Survey research is based on a randomly selected sample of decision-makers of South African Small, Medium and Micro enterprises (SMMEs), consisting of companies with 1 to 200 staff. This year’s survey will consist of approximately 2 500 respondents.
The definition of SMEs used for the Survey is based on the National Small Business Act 1996, as amended in 2004, which stipulates varying definitions for each industry sector, including number of employees, turnover, and value of assets. A small enterprise is defined as having up to 50 employees, and a medium enterprise from 51 to 200. Companies with up to 20 staff are defined as very small enterprises.
