CHAPTER ONE
1.1 INTRODUCTION
One of the prominent features of the
economic structure of most developing countries is the small side contribution
to government development plan made by industrial sector. Consequently, many of
those countries are presently faced with problem of formulating and
implementing a well conceived programmed a industrial development plan that
will reverse the unfortunate trend ensuring that this dream of a perfect,
integrate and consistent patter of industrialization is achieved, such storage
must be appropriate to these countries condition and levels of development. It
is in this line that small scale industry has been recommended to fill the gap.
The theme of this study is financial
problem facing small scale industries is Kwara state. The study aims at
throwing more light on the basic problem facing small scale industries which is
relevant to the Nigeria economy and by viewing the available source of finance
in some small scale industries in Kwara state.
Moreover, the present economic
situation in the country calls for serious attention to be paid to
diversification. A situation where a country depends mainly on a single product
for the foreign exchange earning is dangerous. Hence, any effort to develop the
impact substituting industries should be encouraged small industries present an
opportunity for the country to provide locally and therefore limit to a
considerable extent the drain on our foreign exchange.
Lastly, any measure for developing the
rural urban migration should pay a greater attention to the public and
development of the small scale industries.
1.2 IMPORTANCE OF SMALL SCALE INDUSTRIES
It could be right to also why the
research the study important.
The
importance of the study originated from the single fact that finance is the
life wire of any business. It can be looked at as the ability to purchase
things. Finance is sued by a business in its operation just as much as labour
and materials purchasing power can transfer from one person to another by
lending of money and can thus, be supplied to business of a price just as physical
goods and services of labour. Like market and labour finance should be bought
in the favourable market and used in the most effective and economical ways
Also the important of small scale
industries is better evaluated against
the background of the objective laid up for it in peculiar circumstances
prevailing in various countries of the world especially it’s contribution
towards removal of bottlenecks and other inhibition of industrial growth).
Among its very grant importance is its contribution toward removal of
indigenous entrepreneur initiative for modern industrial development as
emerging industrialist build up their potential in the small scale industries
for the greater task of industrial management.
The prevalent problems of shortage of
funds skilled labour is steamed through the encouragement and establishment of
industries requiring affordable capital and skilled labour of small scale
industries.
The problem of limited market is
involved through localization of production centers is primary market area. The
income and therefore effective demand of the people is increased through
increased employment for the rural labour force.
Furthermore, the scheme permits
special earliest facilities to be given the establishment that have nothing to
attract the instructional credit agencies and these facilities the acquisition
of machinery raw material factory accommodation as well as encouraging manpower
training.
Also, the inform, choice of ambitions
industrialist in term of technology industry or product lines plant size
equipment product process will be greatly reduced when they have personally
experienced small specialize industries with requirements commitment and risk.
Management techniques are also
advanced in the small scale industries to facilitate the growth of management
and marketing potential of indigenous industrialists as to be able absorb
demand change of the growing and complex society.
Small businesses also pre-empty the
used lack of knowledge on standard and appealing product designs that are
common with small scale industrialists of developing countries.
Lastly, fervently hope that useful
ideas would come out for investors on the source of finance and obtaining some
when required.
