In the fullness of time, when the Guyanese society as a whole begins to pay greater attention than it does at this time to the energy that goes into women-run small businesses, they are likely to come to a significantly enhanced appreciation of the effort that is invested in first, setting up, and afterwards, sustaining these enterprises.
Remarkably, a significant number of modest, women-run enterprises have their origins in the immediate needs of their creators. These women, frequently, understand little about the orthodoxies of business. It is purely a matter of doing well enough to make a modest living or else, to subsidise an inadequate one.
