Abstract

Traditional gold mining in Lebong Tambang Village, Lebong Regency, has long been a major source of community income and has driven the growth of MSMEs in artisanal mining equipment trade. This study analyzes the key determinants of business success and formulates sustainable development strategies for artisanal mining areas. Using a descriptive qualitative approach through literature review and document analysis of government reports and scientific publications, the study examines market opportunities, business challenges, and relevant strategies for mining equipment MSMEs. The findings identify four main success factors: partnerships with local miners, improved product quality and after-sales service, digital marketing utilization, and the application of safety and environmental principles in equipment production. Despite strong development potential, MSMEs face challenges including limited capital, legal constraints related to artisanal mining, and occupational safety risks. Overall, the mining equipment trade in Lebong Regency has significant growth prospects if supported by collaboration, product innovation, and supportive regulations and financing, contributing to sustainable local economic development and improved community welfare.

Abstract

The national priority programs on food security and the Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) initiative require the active participation of cooperatives and food-sector SMEs. This study aims to analyze the contribution of the UPI Melati Mekar Jaya IKM Producer Cooperative in North Bengkulu Regency in supporting food security and the MBG program. Method: A quantitative descriptive approach with a single case study design using 56 monthly transactions of actual sales report data from November 2025 to April 2026. Analysis was conducted using the FAO’s four pillars of food security framework, SWOT analysis, and a Fishbone diagram. Results: Total sales over six months reached Rp411,869,400, with animal protein products accounting for 72.3%. Sales trends were fluctuating (CAGR 18.2%; coefficient of variation 38.5%). The SWOT analysis indicates a Quadrant I position (aggressive strategy) with an IFAS score of 3.38 and an EFAS score of 3.19. Three of the four FAO pillars are met, but the stability pillar remains weak. Four main gaps were identified: production capacity, food safety and nutrition standardization, access to financing, and institutional coordination. Conclusion: Cooperatives possess real capacity as strategic partners of the government, but require strengthening of production capacity and access to capital. Novelty: This study presents empirical evidence based on six months of real transaction data, mapping of the supply chain to SPPGs, and explicit identification of implementation gaps.
