    INDUSTRY

    I wouldn’t be surprised if, after you visit, you


    decide to live there! What is your job? I will
    discuss the industries in this country.
    WEBER’S THEORY IN RELATION TO THE
    DOMINANT INDUSTRY
    • Weber says that companys will always try to find a location that have
    the smallest amount of transportation and labor costs. Since the
    Ivory Coast is by a water source and since the climate is the best for
    growing cocoa beans the two together make Webers theory true.
