This study investigates the survival patterns and structural barriers faced by small enterprises such as bakeries, kiosks, butcher shops, and breweries. Results show that firms in beverages and general retail tend to endure longer, while niche food businesses face early closures.

The findings highlight the need for targeted microcredit, tax relief, and training to reinforce microbusiness stability and inform inclusive economic policy. 2025-09-17T18:08:02Z 2025-09-17T18:08:02Z 2025-04 Ponencia en congreso https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14769/5025 https://doi.org/10.64814/136205xtktcr en application/pdf Instituto Tecnológico de Buenos Aires (ITBA)
