<![CDATA[Purpose: This study aims to analyze the development of Ledre MSMEs, examine the role of stakeholders in the empowerment process, and identify empowerment strategies for Ledre entrepreneurs in Gapluk Village, Purwosari Sub-District, Bojonegoro Regency. Methodology/approach: This study employs a qualitative descriptive method. Data collection techniques included observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation. Miles and Huberman’s interactive analysis model was used to explore the development of Ledre MSMEs in Gapluk Village and the role of stakeholders in community empowerment, as well as SWOT analysis to determine appropriate strategies for empowering Ledre MSMEs in Gapluk Village. Results/findings: The results showed that the number of Ledre MSMEs in Gapluk Village has declined from 2020 to 2024 due to various factors. Therefore, efforts to empower Ledre MSMEs to overcome this decline must involve stakeholders from the village to the regency-level government, relevant agencies or institutions, and Ledre business actors such as policymakers, coordinators, facilitators, implementers, and accelerators.

Limitations: The limitations of this study include the geographical coverage limited to Ledre MSMEs in Gapluk Village as the case study location; therefore, the results may not be generalizable to other regions.
