The 2022 Sudan Informal Sector Enterprise Survey was conducted by the World Bank Group's (WBG) Enterprise Analysis Unit (DECEA) in several cities in Sudan. The survey covers the following areas: Khartoum, Omdurman, and Port Sudan. The fieldwork was implemented by Ipsos Kenya and Consulsat Market Research, and the data was collected between March 2022 and January 2023.
The primary objectives of the Informal Sector Enterprise Surveys are to: i) understand demographics of the informal sector in the covered cities, ii) describe the environment within which these businesses operate, and iii) enable data analysis based on the samples that are representative at each city level.
