The primary sources of data used were from responses off our hundred and thirty (430) respondents using conveniences randomly selected techniques. Findings show that an effective record keeping in small-scale businesses has great influenced on their business performances. Based on the above discussion, recommendation was made to encourage the adoption of sound records keeping in small businesses. And also Workshop, seminar and conferences on small scale financial records keeping should be organised and financed by government and non-governmental organizations periodically to train owners of small-scale businesses in the study area to enhance their performance.
