This research endeavors to investigate the factors that influence the growth of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the cities of Ouargla and Hassi Messaoud by examining the relationship between these determinants and SME growth. The study employed a descriptive methodology and gathered data through a questionnaire administered to a sample of 38 SMEs across various sectors. The collected data was subjected to analysis using SPSS software. The primary findings suggest that the growth of the SMEs under investigation is influenced by the entrepreneur's qualities, management style, enterprise characteristics, and the environment to varying degrees, with the entrepreneur's qualities exerting the most significant impact on growth. Furthermore, the study revealed that the activity sector and the entrepreneur's gender affect SME growth, while other personal and general factors do not have a significant bearing on the growth of the studied SMEs.
