In Senegal, small and medium-sized business enterprises emerge as key players of economic growth. They stand as a main driving force for poverty alleviation, income generating activities and jobs creation. However, SMEs face managerial hurdles both at internal and external aspects that significantly impact on their growth. From 2011 to 2014, the Senegalese government implemented the Japanese oriented rural development model, One Village One Product (OVOP), with the aim at increasing local small scale entrepreneurs to generate income through the promotion of local resources under the OVOP Program. After reviewing and evaluating OVOP implementation projects held in Japan and other countries including Senegal, we will propose a new framework of OVOP concept suitable for Senegal OVOP Entrepreneurs and related stakeholders.
