Timber, Paper and Pulp Industry
- RM are forests/trees
- River near it helps in transportation, clean water for production
- Commercial lumbering - in Ontario, Quebec in Canada
- Softwood easy chop, forests concentrated
- Snow helps dec friction and faster movt, road connectivity is deep
- Labour inc during winter due to dec in agri activities, mechanisation is high
- Ready-made market in USA
- Cheap hydroelectricity due to more rivers, better connected/all-weather power grids
- Challenge in Tropical areas
- Scattered trees, dense vegetation makes transport difficult, high extraction cost, hardwood
- Sparse settlement away from market
- Lax regulation, weak organisation
- In Britain areas near Thames, Manchester
- Scandinavian countries like Finland, Denmark
- Malaysia, Phillipines - Australia, Japan but hardwood
- Myanmar, Thailand
- South Gujarat, Odisha, MP near raw material Softwood and Bamboo
- Kolkata, Lucknow near market, cheap labour, electricity, coal, water etc available
Commercial Fishing Industry
- Located in middle - higher latitudes in Northern hemisphere due to plankton availability, cool water, better sunlight
- Where cold and hot currents meet ex Gulf stream and Labrador
- Market is readily available especial in Asian countries Japan, China etc, used for fish oils, waxes, medicinal purposes, religious/cultural reasons
- Indented/zig zag coastline has many fishing sites
- Cool climate more people switch to fishing, helps preservation
- Dogger bank, great fisher bank in North Europe, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland in Canada etc
- Asian coastline not indented very smooth, narrow continental shelves, low capital investment in technology/equipment, variety of fished make large scale fishing difficult, high oil content
- Southern hem demand for dairy more
- Norway and Japan fishing nation
- West Coastline more indented, wide, continent shelf, more fishes, prawn and mackerel found in abundance
Cotton Textile Industry
- Cotton - Yarn has no weight loss thus proximity to raw material not imp, water required for dyeing, bleaching
- Energy for power looms, cheap labour, availability of fin

- Jute in India
- 90% cultivation in Kolkata, energy from Raniganj and Jharia coal mines, washing, bleaching and retting from Hugly river, cheap labour, good banking facilites
- New machinery needed, wage rate hike, competition from synthetic packaging material, lack of marketing strategy
- Linen made from Flax plant
Silk Industry of China, India and Karnataka
- Was introduced in France but vanished after disease killed silkworms. But Lyon now is an imp fashion centre due to skilled labour
- Silk easily transportable, non-perishable, non-bulky
- Demand in industrialised countries
- Was introduced in Virginia and Georgia but failed
- Japan failed due to workers shifting to industrial sector for higher wages, better returns in other industries, women shifted to Jeans instead of Kimono
- China produces 80% India 18%
- China
- Lower Yangtze - mulberry silk
- Hybrid worms allows year wide rearing
- Abundant labour, combine sericulture with pisciculture
