About SMEPS

“Dream big, stay positive, work hard, and enjoy the journey.”

OUR JOURNEY

SMEPS was first established in 2005 believing in development and positive change. SMEPS is the subsidiary of the Social Fund for Development (SFD) which is considered one of the biggest leading national organizations working in development since 1997. The Social Fund for Development contributes to achieving and aligning its programs with the goals of the national social and economic development plans for poverty reduction. SMEPS was established to support economic development through private sector development under three main components: Value Chain Development, Business Development Services and Entrepreneurship. SMEPS works to achieve its goals by pursuing “creative strategies for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) of diversity and growth through the market-oriented approach”. In keeping with this approach, SMEPS interventions seek to build and facilitate the economic and technical capacities of market-driven private-sector parties including the MSMEs themselves, rather than acting as a significant direct service-provider to MSMEs.
