Abstract
This report has been prepared by Alan Harding, Godius Kahyarara and Neil Rankin with additional
contributions from Francis Teal and Måns Söderbom. It is intended to provide a general overview of
some of the main findings of Wave 4 of the Tanzanian Manufacturing Enterprise Survey (TMES).
The data is still subject to revision in the light of new information being obtained. A final report will
include more comprehensive information and additional topics. The opinions, figures and estimates
set forth the report are the responsibility of the authors, and should not necessarily be considered as
reflecting the views or carry the endorsement of CSAE, ESRF or UNIDO.
The data for 1992-95 which is used in this report was collected by a team from the Helsinki School of
Economics and University of Dar es Salaam. These three surveys were part of the Regional Program
on Enterprise Development (RPED) organised by the World Bank. The original questionnaire was
designed by a team from the World Bank. The data for 1996-98 was collected by a team from the
Centre for Study of African Economies, University of Oxford and the Economic and Social Research
Foundation (ESRF), Dar es Salaam with funding from the UK’s Department for International
Development (DFID). The National Bureau of Statistics in Dar es Salaam and the regions provided
invaluable support.
