Industrial inertia refers to the inability of the industry to relocate even when the locational advantages change or no longer apply. Industrial Inertia is caused by;

• The need to benefit from the established infrastructure.
• Availability of an established pool of labour.
• The benefits of an already existing market.
• The fear of the cost of building other industries elsewhere.

The major Industrial centres would still attract other industries that use other industries’ finished products as raw materials.
