German term or phrase: Klein- und Kleinstunternehmer
Anyone know a good translation for this term (especially Kleinstunternehmer)? In the following text:

Für die Existenzgründerförderung ist stärker als bisher zu beachten, dass Unternehmen nicht nur unter dem Aspekt der Innovation der Förderung bedürfen, sondern dass eine Unterstützung auch aus arbeitsmarktpolitischen Gründen notwendig ist. Klein- und Kleinstunternehmer, die häufig nur für sich selbst ein Einkommen erarbeiten können, müssen angesichts der schwierigen Arbeitsmarktsituation Akzeptanz finden, vor allem auch unter dem Aspekt, dass Selbstständigkeit der Alimentation vorzuziehen ist.
