• Secondary sector involves making things.
4. What is meant by
secondary industry?
• It is the production of goods by industrial
processes.
5. It takes raw materials from the primary sector from the primary industries of
farming, fishing, forestry, mining and quarrying and processes them into
manufactured goods and products.
6. What is meant by
secondary industry?
• This transformation adds value to the raw
materials.
8. SECONDARYINDUSTRY
HEAVY INDUSTRY MANUFACTURING
Metalurgical industry
Heavy chemical industry
LIGHT INDUSTRY
PROCESSING
Food industry, light
chemical industry, textile
industry, etc.
ASSEMBLY
Automovile industry,
aeronautics
HI-TECH
Electronics and computing
industry
9. MANUFACTURING
• Manufacturing refers to the conversion of raw
materials from the primary sector into
finished products on a large scale.
Steelmaking produced
many manufactured
products, some of which
are then used in
processing industries,
assembly lines and hi-
tech industries.
10. PROCESSING
• Processing involves taking materials and
creating a finished product from combining
and changing them in some way.
It is common in the food
industry, where recipes
produce a final unique
product from many
sources (for example,
canned food)
12. ASSEMBLY
• Parts are added to other semi-finished parts
in a sequence that usually involves conveyor
belts, assembly lines and workers using
specialised skills at each stage.
13. HI-TECH
• High-tech products are manufactured by using
`cutting edge´ technology and involve
advanced computer techniques.
19. LARGE-SCALE INDUSTRY
Employs many people
Takes up a lot of space
Has a large capital investment
Produces a high volume of products
aiming for high profit
20. SMALL-SCALE INDUSTRY
Employs few people
Uses up a small amount of land
Has a low capital investment
Produces a low volume of products
aiming for a modest profit
53. TYPES OF INDUSTRIAL LOCATION

Footlose
54. TYPES OF INDUSTRIAL LOCATION
• LOCATED CLOSE TO RAW MATERIALS
– Industries that use heavy, bulky raw materials
which are expensive to transport and produce
waste.
Iron and steelworks are
examples of locations near
to raw materials.
55.
56. TYPES OF INDUSTRIAL LOCATION
• LOCATED CLOSE TO RAW MATERIALS
– The final product weighs less so transport costs to
the market are low.
57. TYPES OF INDUSTRIAL LOCATION
• LOCATED CLOSE TO THE MARKET
– The raw materials for these industries are often
small and light:
• so the transport costs for them are low.
– But the final product is:
• heavier, usually due to the addition of water,
• and in some cases perishable.
61. TYPES OF INDUSTRIAL LOCATION
• FOOTLOOSE
– This industries can locate almost anywhere.
– Raw materials and market locations are not so
important.
– They need labour and good transport and
communications.
– Ex. Computer sofwater development
