Las micro, pequeñas y medianas empresas (MPYMES) tienen una gran importancia en la economía y en el empleo a nivel nacional y regional, tanto en países industrializados como en los de menor grado de desarrollo. […] de manera tradicional se ha utilizado el número de trabajadores como criterio para estratificar los establecimientos por tamaño, y como criterios complementarios, el total de ventas anuales, los ingresos y/o los activos fijos. 1, record 1, Spanish, - micro%2C%20peque%C3%B1as%20y%20medianas%20empresas
