In the industrial geography of Nigeria, leather product manufacturing relies on an inter-regional value chain connecting pastoral livestock regions to light assembly clusters. Arrange the following sequential stages of this manufacturing process in order from raw material harvesting to final finished product distribution.
- 1Flaying and initial preservation of cattle hides and goat skins in northern pastoral centers such as Sokoto and Maiduguri.
- 2Chemical processing, tanning, and dyeing of raw skins into finished leather sheets in Kano tanneries.
- 3Southward inter-regional transportation of processed leather materials along major rail and road transit corridors.
- 4Crafting and mass assembly of footwear, belts, and bags in light industrial clusters such as Aba (Ariaria hub) and Lagos.
Cevap
The correct sequence starts with hide flaying in Sokoto/Maiduguri, followed by tanning in Kano, southward haulage along transit corridors, and final footwear assembly in Aba and Lagos.
The manufacturing process follows a logical spatial and industrial sequence: raw animal hides are first collected in northern pastoral belts (Sokoto/Maiduguri), then processed into leather at raw-material-oriented tanneries in Kano. The tanned leather is subsequently transported south along main freight corridors to market-oriented assembly hubs like Aba and Lagos, where skilled labor transforms the leather into finished commercial footwear and accessories.
