Abstract

The survey of unregistered businesses was conducted in Somalia, between October and December 2019, simultaneously with the Somolia Enterprise Survey 2019. The survey covers two cities: Bosaso and Mogadishu. The fieldwork was implemented by Altai Consulting in collaboration with Tusmo Research and Consulting.

The primary objectives of the survey was to:
i) to understand the business demographics of the sector in the two cities, and
ii) to describe the environment within which these businesses operate.

A secondary objective of the survey is to provide an estimate of the number of informal businesses operating in these cities.
