Consider the following statements regarding footloose industries:
1. Footloose industries are those industries which enjoy relatively free choice of location.
2. The cotton industry is an example of a footloose industry.
Which of the statement given above is/are correct?
1 only
2 only
Both 1 and 2
Neither 1 nor 2
Footloose industry is a general term for an industry that can be placed and located at any location without effect from factors such as resources or transport. Hence statement 1 is correct. Reason for growth of footloose industries lies in the rapid development of highly sophisticated products requiring a great deal of scientific research and development.
On the other hand, the cotton industry is largely dependent on cotton as raw material, employs low to the medium-skilled labour force and has a conventional product range. So it is not a footloose industry. Other examples of non-footloose industries include Tea, Jute and sugar industry. Hence statement 2 is not correct.
