COMPARATIVE ASSESSMENTTRADITIONAL

BUSINESSMICRO SOCIAL BUSINESS

Don’t usually focus on social causes.

Each MSB will address one social cause/problem

in the community.

Don’t provide micro credit to launch

another business.

After being profitable each MSB will support at least one underprivileged youth to launch another

MSB.

No traditional business is aligned with UN’s

Millennium Development Goal

(MDGs)

MSB will primarily focus on the issues which are

related to MSB.

Provides employment opportunity to educated and

privileged youth.

Semi educated and underprivileged youth can be self employed by MSB.

COMPARISION WHAT GLOBAL YOUTH LEADERS THINK ABOUT MSB?

"MSB sounds really promising and model is easy to adopt, reachable, Impact based and important part is - this kind of model is real need for youth

especially students.“- Jatin Kataria ( India)

"In Venezuela I have seen micro credits, but not in the social business area, as you say, MSB sounds to me as an unexplored mixture."

- Carlo López Scutaro (Venezuela)

“This initiative is brilliant and quite relevant in poor countries, as one of the greatest challenges of SME growth and development, especially at

the grassroots is lack of finance.”- C:F Alumni Feedback

• Jhal muri (local food) seller Requires BDT 2000/USD 25 to start• Road side tea & snacks Requires BDT 1200/USD to start• Flower seller Requires BDT 1500/USD 20 to start• Fruit seller/Water supply Require BDT 5000/ USD 60 to start

There are 30 million unemployed people in Bangladesh and about 50% of them are illiterate, semi-educated. (ILO data)

This is road side tea seller in Dhaka, Bangladesh. A MSB of this type can be launched with 5000 BDT or 70 USD.

Tea, Biscuits, Bread, Candy, Mineral water are the common items which are sold in this type of store.

OTHER MSB POSSIBILITIES:

MSB will be open a wide opportunity to them by enabling them with micro credit.

Please note: BDT refers to Bangladeshi Taka and the amount mentioned is done on the basis of approximation after discussing MSB opportunities with few underprivileged youth.
