INTERDEPENDENCE However, it’s dependant on businesses in the secondary sector to make things like PC’s, paper, planes, pens, desks, hotels, etc. However, they are also dependent on other tertiary sector businesses such as solicitors, banks, window cleaners, electricians, etc. This is when one type of business is dependent on businesses from other sectors. For example: They also need power for electricity etc. The raw materials for this are obtained in the primary sector. This is INTERDEPENDENCE A travel agent offers a holiday booking service. They don’t make or grow anything.
Task 2.2 Interdependence For 1 of these businesses, list other types of business that they depend on (think PRIMARY, SECONDARY & TERTIARY). • Primark • Ford • Asda

Specialisation “A business that concentrates on one thing” Toy maker – Makes toys Fisherman – Catches fish Camera shop – Sells cameras
Added Value • As raw materials are made into finished goods value is added. When the product is sold in the tertiary sector more value to the product is added. It’s not from Primark £2.50 £55.50 £0.50
Sectors have changed Primary Tertiary + Secondary
Primary – employing less • Raw materials used up • Machines used instead of workers • Cheaper products overseas
Secondary – employing less • Goods made overseas for cheaper • Machinery replaced workers DEINDUSTRIALISATION Secondary sector declining
Tertiary sector – Employing more • More people so more things e.g. education, healthcare • Machines can’t do the jobs • People have more money so buy more • People want to do more things • Customer service is important
Evaluation of changes • People don’t loose jobs just change jobs • Amount made in secondary has not decreased as machinery is making, so more made. Work in cinema Farmer Man makes 10 Jumpers a day Machine makes 100 Jumpers a day
