This paper shows the results of an investigation carried out in 93 micro companies of the conurbation of San Luis Potosí-Soledad de Graciano Sanchez, Mexico, with the objective of finding factors that influence their chances of long-term survival. A logit logistic regression model was used to estimate the way in which the competitive intensity of a sector, the geographical location, the profile of the entrepreneur, the performance of market studies and the geographical concentration of competitors influence the probabilities of business survival. Among the relevant findings, a greater relative importance of the variables profile of the entrepreneur and market study stand out.
