What to Focus On

  • Secondary activities transform raw materials into valuable products.
  • Manufacturing adds value by changing raw materials into finished goods.
  • Manufacturing includes both hand-made and machine-made goods.
  • Craft production is small in quantity and made to order.
  • Mass production creates standardised goods in large quantities.
  • Mechanisation uses gadgets to perform tasks.
  • Industries choose locations where costs are low and profits are high.
  • Market access is a major location factor.
  • Raw material access is crucial for bulky, weight-losing, or perishable inputs.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Manufacturing means only hand-made goods, so machine-made products are not part of manufacturing.

Household industries and small scale manufacturing are the same because both are small.

Foot loose industries are industries that use a lot of raw material and can be located anywhere without any limitation.

Memory Tips
