Globalization has led to industrial shifts as manufacturing moves to locations with lower costs of production and attractive government incentives. Transportation and communication technologies now allow companies to manage operations across borders, moving goods efficiently between manufacturing sites and consumer markets. Factors like lower labor costs, tax exemptions, and abundant natural resources have encouraged growth of factories in developing countries, while containerization and fiber optic networks facilitate international trade and information sharing.
