Abstract

This study examines the impact of entrepreneurship skills training on agricultural productivity among small-holder coffee farmers in Kenya. Entrepreneurship in coffee farming involves innovation, effective resource management, risk-taking, and market adaptation—all essential for the entrepreneurial process. Given the critical role of coffee farming in Kenya's economy and the challenges faced by small-holder farmers, this research explores how entrepreneurial skills can enhance productivity and sustainability. A mixed-method approach was employed, with data collected from 12,000 farmers using questionnaires. A sample size of 387 was determined using Yamane's formula, and stratified random sampling was applied across 17 factories. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS software. The results indicate that training in business planning, technology, financial management, and leadership significantly improves coffee farming performance. The study concludes that ineffective entrepreneurship training is closely linked to poor performance in coffee farming. It recommends that the government, through the ministries of agriculture and co-operatives, prioritize entrepreneurship training for small-holder coffee farmers to enhance productivity. These findings can guide future interventions aimed at reviving the coffee industry and ensuring its sustainability in Kenya.

Abstract

This paper aims to examine the relationship between electronic supplier relationship management (e-SRM) and the performance of state corporations in Kenya. Effective management of supplier relationships is crucial for enhancing suppliers' contributions to organizational performance. However, the adoption of electronic means for managing these relationships has been insufficiently explored, particularly in the public sector. The study focused on all 248 state corporations in Kenya, from which a sample of 153 corporations was selected using a stratified random sampling technique. Employing a descriptive correlational research design, primary data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings indicate a significant relationship between electronic supplier relationship management and the performance of state corporations in Kenya (? = 0.843, P = 0.0001 < 0.05). The study concludes that the persistent underperformance of state corporations is significantly linked to the limited adoption of electronic supplier relationship management practices. Therefore, it is recommended that state corporations, through their senior management, including heads of procurement and supply chain, integrate electronic supplier relationship management to streamline their supplier relationships and enhance overall performance.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of competitive aggressiveness on the growth of public transport enterprises in Kenya. Public transport enterprises significantly contribute to the national economy, yet they encounter numerous challenges in their operating environment, such as evolving policies, regulatory changes, taxation issues, poor infrastructure, and inconsistent law enforcement, all impacting growth. While competitive aggressiveness is often deemed crucial for entrepreneurial success, exploring its effects in the Kenyan public transport sector is limited. This study addresses this gap, grounded in the resource-based view (RBV) theory of competitiveness. Employing a descriptive-correlational research design, the study surveyed all 261 public transport enterprises operating in Nairobi County. Data were collected via questionnaires and analyzed using SPSS, applying descriptive and inferential statistical methods. Results indicate a significant positive effect of competitive aggressiveness on enterprise growth (? = 0.704; p < 0.05). The study concludes that low levels of competitive aggressiveness among public transport entrepreneurs limit sectoral growth. It recommends fostering a more aggressive competitive approach to support enterprise expansion within this critical sector.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the impact of inventory visibility on the performance of large food and beverage manufacturing firms in Kenya. The research grounded the network perspective theory and employed a cross-sectional design. The target population comprised 561 individuals from 187 large-scale food and beverage manufacturing firms in Kenya, with human resource managers as the primary respondents, given their role as custodians of employee records. Using stratified random sampling, a sample of 228 respondents was selected. Data was collected through a structured questionnaire and pilot-tested on 10% of the sample to verify its validity and reliability before full deployment. Data analysis involved both descriptive and inferential statistical methods. The findings indicated that inventory visibility had not been effectively integrated into most firms surveyed. Furthermore, a strong and significant correlation was identified between inventory visibility and the performance of food and beverage manufacturing firms in Kenya. The study concluded that the lack of effective integration of inventory visibility contributed to inefficient inventory management, adversely affecting organizational performance. Accordingly, it is recommended that manufacturing firms enhance their supply chain processes by improving inventory visibility, allowing for more effective tracking of inventory flows to support improved performance outcomes.
