Abstract

Business growth in Mozambique occurs in an environment marked by socioeconomic complexity  and uncertainties. The country faces structural limitations such as deficient infrastructure,  corruption, social inequality, and restricted access to credit, while also being impacted by external  shocks derived from global market volatility and climate change. This exploratory, qualitative, and  bibliographic article analyzes the main challenges faced by Mozambican companies and seeks to  understand how complexity and uncertainty shape growth strategies. The analysis suggests that  organizational survival and expansion depend on the adoption of adaptive and innovative strategies,  combined with stable public policies and strong institutions. It is concluded that managing  complexity and uncertainty is not only a theoretical need but a practical condition essential for  business development in Mozambique.
