That is why the objective of this research is to identify the factors that put at risk the continuity and sustainability of family businesses in Quevedo city, which goes hand in hand with factors that contribute to literature as determinants of success for growth and continuity of the company. Once the PE has been formed and established, one of the most controversial points and factors is the succession that plays a fundamental role in the continuity of the company; Sometimes the lack of family protocols means that positions that deserve a staff with a higher level of training and skills fail because there are no policies that guarantee the entry of family members; this goes hand in hand with training since in certain cases the selection of assignments is given by family criteria and not by the academic level of the person. To carry out this study, documentary information was collected, in addition to the database of the Chamber of Commerce of Quevedo city. A survey was carried out of 165 companies, of which 135 were EF, in which the characteristics of the company, succession and incorporation of personnel, administrative management and family intervention in the company were identified.
