The future of the Ethiopian economy in the urban area depends to a great degree on the success of Micro and Small enterprises (MSEs) as in many other developing countries since MSEs are important to economic growth and considerably essential to generate employment. However, Ethiopian MSEs are facing a series impediments emanating from external and internal factors that have sign if i can’t adverse effects on their performance, growth and sustainability. The purposes of this research are to explicitly enquiry and consider aspects that are hampering the performance, growth and sustainability of MSEs in Wolaita and Dawro Zones. The study was utilized causal research design to achieve the research objectives. The target population under study is all enterprises in the five developmental sectors in five towns from both Wolita and Dawuro zone Administrations.

Sample size was 347 which determined by using Yamane (1967) formula and individual informants were selected via stratified random sampling technique. The data collected was analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively by the aid of Spss. V.16. The finding of the study showed that the variables (financial, marketing, working premises, technological, political-legal, entrepreneurial and managerial factors affecting enturprenual growth and sustainability both in Wolaita and Dawuro zones which were explained the variance of 34% and 66% of the variance was explained by other factors which are not the part of this study variables.
