N2  - The choice of a new location for an industrial investment is not a task to be undertaken lightly by the management of a company, public or private. It is a task which faces most companies only rarely and most individual managers only once or twice in their careers. Therefore in many companies there will be few precedents, no proven rules of thumb, no fund of experience to fall back on. So planning, analysis and the anticipation of issues and problems will be all important for a successful move -whether that move is to open a new branch plant or to relocate an existing operation. This book has been written to assist in this planning process
