This is due to the increasingly intense competition in domestic and foreign industries.

Growing the MSME sector and reducing poverty are signs of successful development. Especially for low-income countries, the expansion of the MSME sector and the reduction of poverty are signs of successful development income per capita.  The best tool to help MSMEs decide on marketing plans and forecast changes in the corporate environment is SWOT analysis.
