Fishbone and Pareto diagram shows that internal factors have strength and weakness, indicating that there are SMEs that have their own business capital, workers who are experienced in making brown sugar. Meanwhile, external factors, in the form of opportunities and threats, where SMEs already have markets and customers. In the Threat factor, technology and competitors are found to be a threat, but if examined again, these two things are real opportunities for SMEs. The use of technology in this digital era can be used as a promotional medium, while the identified competitors come from outside the area of SME. These competitors can surely be a driver of good performance in running their business. Paper type: is categorized as a research paper
