Synopsis
Excerpt from Locating the Factory
The United States Steel Corporation found it profitable to build a whole new city, but the American Rolling Mill Company finds it profitable to remain where it is; Henry Ford advocates that factories move to rural towns, while William Miller Booth states that The modern American city is the nucleus of sue-l cessful manufacturing. These seem like con?icting opinions, but if we will examine the basic factors that should govern the locating of a factory, manufactory, or other enterprise, we will see that selection and decision can be made scientifically, accurately and safely.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book guides business leaders on how to select the location of their factory or plant in order to maximize profits. The author argues that the most profitable locations are those where the cost of production and distribution are at a minimum. The author stresses that decisions about a factory's location should not be influenced by incentives such as free sites or tax breaks, which may not provide lasting benefits. Instead, leaders should weigh factors such as the availability of markets, raw materials, transportation, and labor, as well as considering the specific needs of their industry. The book provides a comprehensive framework for evaluating these factors and making informed decisions. By following the guidance, business leaders can increase their chances of choosing the optimal location for their enterprises and achieving long-term success.
