This statistic shows the total number of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Belgium from 2007 to 2020. The SME sector in Belgium is called KMO (an abbreviation of kleine of middelgrote ondernemingen). As of 2020, there were approximately 1.2 million SMEs in the country. More than 50 percent of these were located in the region of Flanders. Belgium has four different governments, which all do things differently from one another: the federal level, Flanders, Wallonia and the Brussels Capital Region (Brussels and its direct neighborhood). When doing research for Belgium, most data will touch upon the three local regions and not the federal level.
