Youth entrepreneurship is one of the solutions to reducing unemployment. The purpose of
the study was to analyse youth entrepreneurship business performance in the Capricorn
District Municipality in Limpopo Province. An entrepreneurship development model focusing
on internal factors (entrepreneurial orientation) and external factors (supportive and
cooperative environments), was adapted to establish whether they are related to youth
business performance. The business environmental factors, such as business location,
crime, and corruption were also tested as to whether they are related to youth business
performance.
The research used a census survey and primary data was obtained through questionnaires.
The respondents for this study were 26 youth entrepreneurship business units in CDM, in
the Limpopo Province of South Africa. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics.
The findings reveal that youth businesses have shown negative performance in terms of the
employment in the CDM, which results in employing fewer than five employees. / Business Management / M. Tech.
