Change in Traditional Industries

Change in Traditional Industries: The new machinery and industries could not easily displace traditional industries. Textiles was a dynamic sector, but a large portion of it was produced within domestic units. At the end of 19th century, less than 20 per cent of the total workforce was employed in technologically advanced industrial sectors.  Many ordinary and small innovations were the basis of growth in many non-mechanized sectors like food processing, building, pottery, glasswork, tanning, furniture making etc.
