Answer:
The one which most matches Alfred Weber's model of industrialization is B) Cofee Roaster in Germany
Explanation:
Alfred Weber's theory of industrialization is centered around the need that industry need not be located far from it source of raw materials or from it's market for two main reasons:
1. it helps to ease transportation to factor especially where the raw materials are likely to be heavier than the finished product.
2. It also helps to lessen the ease of delivery, where the final product heavier than the raw materials inputted.
Central to this theory is also the cost factor of transporting goods to the factory and from the factory to the market. Weber's position is that it makes for better business sense if the cost is minimized by choosing factory sites strategically.
So the coffee roaster in Germany is the ideal representation of Webers theory because, they are a heavy producer, consumer, and exporter of coffee.
In 2019 for instance, Germany ranked 5th globally on the list of coffee exporters with an export valued at $2.4 billion.
