When thinking about where to begin to start planning an expansion of manufacturing operations, there are a lot of things that need to be analyzed and considered to make a final decision.
Important Things to Know About the Manufacturing Industry
Here we can help you with the TOP 5 MOST IMPORTANT THINGS IN THE MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY to begin your analysis.
1. COSTS
First, analyze how much does it cost to open a new manufacturing facility. These are some costs we recommend to be considered in the decision making.
- Labor – The sum of all wages paid to employees, employee benefits and payroll taxes paid by an employer.
- Logistics – Supply chain, transportation, tariffs, and other costs.
- Infrastructure – land, building.
- Services – Fixed costs, variable costs, operating costs, maintenance.
- Taxes – Taxes are involuntary fees levied on individuals or corporations and enforced by a government entity — whether local, regional or national — in order to finance government activities. For example, income tax, corporate tax, sales tax, property tax, tariff, estate tax.
- Government Incentives. Governments can offer financial assistance to private businesses making investments using economic incentives. Incentives can include tax abatements, tax revenue sharing, grants, infrastructure assistance, no or low-interest financing, free land, tax credits and other financial resources.
