Abstract: Due to several limitations, the business climate for small and medium-sized firms has grown more complicated, dynamic, and uncertain. Therefore, firms should work with local governments to boost their efforts to retain competitiveness in the market. Local government needs to support entrepreneurship if small and medium-sized businesses are to become more adaptable and competitive. In order to better understand how local governments might support the expansion of Small and Medium enterprises (SMEs), this study sought to take a comprehensive approach to the topic. It focuses on SMEs and how they might advance rural development in the Kafue district by looking at cases of SMEs operating within cooperatives.
