Abstract
TOPIC; INDUSTRIAL ESTATE FOR KANO.
Like most developing countries, Nigeria has
realised the importance of diversifying its
economic base in order to achieve a sound and
stable economy. There is a consensus among
development economists that "industrialisation
is a potent factor in development process".
Similarly, events in the last few years in this
country have shown that industrial take-off is
crucial to the whole process of economic take-off.
The Nigeriai Industrialists favour carrying
out distributive trade in which they make quick
gains, than engaging in manufacturing business
which might on the long run turn-out to be more
profitable. The government could minimise this
problem by setting up the required industries
which could later be sold or rented to the
Nigerian businessmen who could then be willing
to take them up. This can successfully be
achieved through the establishment of government
sponsored industrial estates.
Industrial estate is an industrial environment
equip d with a road network; services and utilities
for the various industries to be housed there
