This paper explored sustainable marketing practices and SMEs development within Southwest Nigeria.

The study employed a quantitative approach, and purposively surveyed 386 SMEs across 5 Southwestern states (Lagos, Oyo, Ogun, Ondo, and Ekiti), with the aid of a structured questionnaires to collect data and the data were analyzed using regression with the aid of Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The results indicate that sustainable marketing practices significantly impact production decisions among SMEs operators in the sample region.

The study concludes that sustainable marketing practices play a crucial role in the development of SMEs within Southwest Nigeria.
