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
