Industrial agglomeration refers to the concentration of businesses and industries in a specific geographic area. When companies in related sectors cluster together, they benefit from shared resources, skilled labor, suppliers, and knowledge exchange.

Agglomeration creates a supportive environment that can drive economic growth and competitiveness for the companies involved.
