The study objectives were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation coefficient index. The findings revealed that demographic, environmental, and training factors had a positive significant effect on the performance of female entrepreneurs. It was concluded that socio-demographic factors have a highly positive and significant relationship with the performance of female entrepreneurs in Kawempe Division.
