Authors : Berrah Kafia .

Abstract

This article aims to identify the phenomenon of family-owned SME development in the Algerian context by analysing the factors that influence their development. This study was based on a cross-tabulation analysis (using the independence test). We utilised primarily primary data collected from a sample of Algerian family-owned SMEs. Our results show that a number of variables significantly affect the development of the family businesses studied. This contribution will help to guide discussions on a more appropriate set of strategies to promote the development of family businesses, which are the essential drivers of economic growth in Algeria.
