Presently over 14 workers employed in the enterprise located
into the office of General Director. The remaining number of workers is
employed without the consideration of their education.
The majority of the employees have obtained some level of
formal education at all. About 53% of workers have a higher than junior primary
educational level, all these evidence to the extent, the production scale and
growth of enterprise is positively correlated with education of proprietor.
It is likely that education will not be major limiting factor
in potential growth of the industry, but skills enhancing training may however
be required particularly among women. The limiting skills and training among
workers in the industry may be the case to the slow growth of the industry.
