Popis:	This paper concludes presentation on two most relevant binding constraints identified by a manufacturing ‘small’business sector in Ghana. The first constraint of limited access to technology was discussed in an earlier paper inthis Journal. The second constraint of limited access to market was studied to determine the extent to whichmanufacturing ‘small’ businesses had access to market and to identify one or two overriding factors thatconstrained ability of the businesses to access market. This was achieved through a survey of 85 manufacturingsmall businesses in Berekum District and Sunyani Municipality of Ghana. Low demand for goods came up asthe overriding factor that constrained the enterprises’ ability to access market. To tackle the problem of lowdemand, it is indispensable for government to spearhead creation of required co-ordination externalities andchampion the course of self-discovery as a nation.
