Explanation:

Osaka is an important textile center of Japan and is known as the ‘Manchester of Japan’. The textile industry developed in Osaka due to several geographical factors. The extensive plain around Osaka ensured that land was easily available for the growth of cotton mills.

The warm humid climate was well suited to spinning and weaving. The river Yodo provided sufficient water for the mills. Labour was easily available. The location of port facilitates the import of raw cotton and for exporting textiles.

The textile industry at Osaka depended completely upon imported raw materials. Cotton was imported from Egypt, India, China, and the USA. The finished products were mostly exported and had a good market due to good quality and low price.
