The literature review and analysis authenticate that Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are playing a very important role in the economic development of Pakistan but there is a need for comprehensive mass awareness in Balochistan to acquaint the people to adopt the latest rules and techniques being practiced all over the world. This study is somehow limited due to peoples unawareness of the research topic, security issues, traditions, and customs of Balochistan.
