Question

what is cottage industry

Answer 1

A cottage industry is a small-scale, decentralized manufacturing business often operated out of a home rather than a purpose-built factory. Cottage industries are defined by the amount of investment required to start, as well as the number of people employed. They often focus on the production of labor-intensive goods but face a significant disadvantage when competing with factory-based manufacturers that mass-produce goods.
