dc.description.abstractThe presence of immigrants in South Africa is surrounded with a great aura of controversy. Despite of huge unemployment and other development issues, there is the perception by South Africans that foreigners are competing for jobs, and other social facilities thus leading to xenophobia. Most South African citizens are puzzled by the increasingly great numbers of immigrants flocking to South Africa annually. However, most immigrants find it difficult to get paid employment. The primary objective of this study was to investigate the drivers of immigrant entrepreneurship. In addition, the_ study investigated the barriers to the performance of immigrant entrepreneurs in South Africa. A self-administered questionnaire was employed in the collection of primary data from African-immigrant entrepreneurs operating in selected cities (Alice, East London, Fort Beaufort, Grahamstown, King Williams Town and Port Elizabeth) of the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa. The respondents were selected using simple random sampling method.
