They are some of this ways that tend to determine the size they include as following:

The Market:
The size of the market for a firm's product influences it size. If the market is small in terms of effective demand, the operation of the firm is bound to be small.

Entrepreneurial ability :
Ability to undertake risk and to manage large scale business is an important factor that determine the size of a firm. The size of such firm depends on the knowledge and experience needed for planning the operation.

Technical nature of product or service :
Firms producing perishable agricultural goods tend to produce to satisfy only local markets. They therefore tend to be small scale producers.
