The target population of the study consisted of 21,139 registered MSEs located within Nakuru Town in two Sub Counties namely: Nakuru East and Nakuru West. A stratified sampling technique was used to select a representative sample from the two Sub Counties. A sample size of 246 MSEs were selected to participate in the study though only 236 MSEs responded. A questionnaire was a chosen data collection instrument for the study due to its appropriateness in collecting primary data.
