Light industry
Light industry
is
industry
that is usually less
capital-intensive
than
heavy industry
, and is more
consumer
-oriented than
business
-oriented (i.e., most light industry products are produced for
end users
rather than as intermediates
for use by other industries
). Light industry facilities typically have less
environment
al impact than those associated with heavy industry, and
zoning
laws are more likely to permit light industry near
residential areas
. It is the production of small consumer goods.
