It is by no means uncommon for there to occur some kind of event that draws critical attention to small businesses in Guyana though whether those events, have, for the most part, resulted in any really meaningful enhancement for the sector, as a whole, is an altogether different matter. On the whole, the development of the small business sector has been incremental, more gradual than their owners would have liked to be the case, and whatever support for small business growth becomes available from the state, it is almost invariably disbursed in strictly modest amounts, through state-controlled entities and from behind bureaucratic barriers that can often be much more a frustration than anything to seriously take the support-seeking small business forward. There can be no question than that the whole infrastructure for small business growth in Guyana, including funding, production-related infrastructure and opportunities for product-promotion, both at home and abroad, needs to be re-examined and restructured.
