Abstract
Townroe P. M. (1969) Locational choice and the individual firm, Reg. Studies 3, 15–24. A complementary approach to the use of locational theory for the understanding of the mobility of industrial concerns is found in a concentration on the individual enterprise. In a series of four charts, the internal and external pressures on the decision-making process are set out and the interrelationships explored. A clarification of the factors involved sets the process of locational choice in the context of the investment evaluation procedure of the enterprise and in the framework of public policy.Keywords
