Abstract

Specific information is lacking on the nature of problems and barriers that cause difficulty or prevent small food and kindred products processors from expanding. The objective of this article is to provide an analysis of the specific problems and barriers encountered by small food and kindred products processors. Survey results provide data related to the characteristics of small food and kindred products processors, as well as specific problems faced by management of these businesses. Implications focus on both external (public policy) and internal (management) strategies.
