Ethiopian Publications

 

 

The business information services on business registration, business planning, bookkeeping, marketing, trade fairs, access to finance (see right navigation bar) are the necessary background information for BDS facilitators and BDS providers and their institutions for efficient Business Development Services on the enterprise level. Business plan templates and Import-Export procedure formats as well as cash book templates and cost calculation formats can be printed out and are ready for use.

After a first Internet based version of information services , information has been revised, printed, published. A serie of handbooks is now for sale in the Ethiopian bookshops and via distribution channels of partner organizations like the Chambers of Commerce.

In Ghana actually we are still in the first publishing phase with information services on the BDS Ghana web and non-published drafts for print-out.

In Senegal we have published 9 business handbooks "Guides de l'Entrepreneur" in french language.

Have also a look on the "All-in-one business handbook".
