The study was a cross-sectional and correlational survey design. It involved 121 female entrepreneurs sampled using simple and purposive random sampling.

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. It concludes also that the better the socio-demographics, the higher these females would perform better.
