[KN] A secondary sector business adds value by transforming raw materials into finished products that are worth more.
[APP] For example, a bakery takes flour and sugar and bakes them into cakes, which can be sold for a higher price than the cost of the ingredients.
[AN] This adds value because customers are willing to pay more for a ready-made product than for raw materials alone. It also saves customers time and effort since they don’t have to bake it themselves, making the product more attractive. As a result, the business can charge a higher price, increase profit margins, and remain competitive in the market.

[APP]For example; a factory takes raw wood and turns it into a table. The table will be worth more than the raw wood because it will be usable by people.
[AN]Hence this allows the business to charge a higher price hence increasing revenue and people will view it as a prestigious brand hence developing brand image and increasing consumer base.

[KN]: Secondary sectors add value by converting raw materials into finished goods.
[APP]: For instance, a bakery takes flour and sugar and bakes them into cakes.
[AN]: Thus, the bakery makes desirable products from low cost ingredients which grabs the attention of customers and makes them willing to pay higher prices as they themselves would not have to put in the effort to make a cake this also increases profit margin and the business remains competitive in the market.

{KN}By using packaging to protect and attract customers.
{APP}For instance, a chocolate manufacturer may package its product in an attractive, colourful box with clear branding.
{AN}By using this packaging, the business adds value in two ways. First, the packaging protects the chocolate from damage, ensuring the product reaches the customer in good condition. Second, attractive packaging makes the product stand out on shelves, encouraging customers to buy it instead of a rival brand. This allows the business to charge a higher price than for plain, unbranded chocolate, increasing revenue and profit margins.
