This question is especially burning for women and men living in rural or marginalized locations. In parallel, large retailers are asking themselves how they can create more inclusive value chains while maintaining efficiency. In this report five case study firms (aggregator firms) from Kenya, Morocco, Sri Lanka, Peru, and Cambodia working each with networks of artisan entrepreneurs ranging in numbers from 150 to 2,500, provide evidence that the artisan-based fashion and home accessories industry has the potential to be a large job-generator and a valuable supplier. Three out of five aggregator firms have one or more women founders and female participation among artisans is 80 percent many of which with little formal education and from marginalized groups. "Managing for Growth and Inclusion" analyzes on how each of the aggregator firms has worked on four levels of capabilities for growth and inclusion. The results show that the aggregator firms have achieved growth and even high growth by using capabilities at four levels: a) by blending traditional skills with modern, market-oriented design and selling in global markets, b) by fulfilling management functions in a participatory way and using socially and environmentally sustainable production processes, c) by offering financial solutions to the artisans, and d) by taking advantage of some favorable aspects of the business and digital environment and the innovation ecosystem. A 12-steps program could be implemented to spur growth for similar firms. 650 4 Business environment 650 4 Corporate social responsibility 650 4 Empowerment 650 4 Macroeconomics and economic growth 650 4 Marketing 650 4 Private sector development 650 4 Private sector economics 650 4 Social development 650 4 Social inclusion and institutions 830 0 Other papers. 830 0 World Bank e-Library. 906 BOOK
