A family-style factory in Kowloon City
Before the 1960's, Hong Kong industry was relatively small-scale and somewhat backward. There were small factories in domestic premises, and the business was mainly labour-intensive, such as metal, timber and village craft. The industries that were medium-scale included weaving, spinning, paper products, clothing, bleaching, dyeing, and others. These have now developed into enterprises which are modernized and multi-national. In the past, plant size was small and scattered. Today, factories of different sizes were concentrated in industrial estates for the ease of management and transportation.
