Location Planning and Analysis
Location Planning
● Deciding where you manufacture and ultimately build your business.
Reflection
● The main reason for running a business is to gain profit or revenue, hence directly
considering the availability of your product to the customer is essential for any business.
In making the product more accessible to various customers falls under one main factor -
location. Therefore, any business should take into account where to locate their
business premises based on the factors that they have set or criteria that they want to
meet. For example, when building a school supply shop, you want to be situated near
schools and offices since it is expected that the population near these areas needs the
product that you are selling. On the other hand, when you are a manufacturing business
you want to locate your factory near the source of raw materials in order to cut
transportation and cost and ultimately increase your net income. Every business entity is
unique therefore one must study its needs and wants to match the location of where the
business will be situated.
