The Durban Large Firm Survey is the result of an agreement between the Durban Unicity Council and USAID in 2000 to fund a World Bank technically-supported survey of firms in the greater Durban region. The survey was conducted between May 2002 – April 2003. The survey collected general business data on the firm, and data on production, finances, purchasing, sales/marketing, business relations, human resources, and administrative/legal matters, as well as port-related data.
