The research was exploratory and descriptive with a quantitative approach, analyzing 134 female entrepreneurs and the management systems of their EU. The results show that these female entrepreneurs are, on average, 41 years of age, most of them are married with two children, and they started their business due to financial needs.

It may be concluded that the main problems faced by female entrepreneurs are that most do not consider it essential to take their competitors into account to establish prices for their products or services, nor do they properly select their sources of supplies or advertise to make their business known.
