Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The industries that process raw materials before being transported to the market are manufacturing industries. This normally takes place in factories or processing areas.

For example, a factory might take metal that it is obtained from the Earth ( a raw material) and manufacture it into a steel beam.

Manufacturing is known as the secondary sector of the economy as it is essentially the second step in the process after raw resources (primary sector) are obtained.

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
