Abstract: In this research paper the main aim is to find out whether business ownership and different level of ownership status (age, education, experience, personal investment, and bank loan) have any relationship with business earnings. To conduct this research, author used primary dataset, and data was collected using questionnaire. After sending the questionnaires to different retailers, authors have received 123 responses. In this research paper the author used ordinary least squared (OLS) model and GMM estimation. After analysing the dataset, results shows that female company ownership is inversely connected to Bangladeshi retail business earnings, and a similar association can be shown when businesses use bank loans rather than personal investments. However, when a business owner invests his or her own money, the profits are bigger (positive). For business owners of a comparable age, education level, and experience, we see similar favourable and statistically significant benefits.
