industrializing
Developing mass production
Industrializing describes the process of developing industries and manufacturing capacity on a large scale.
A country or region that is industrializing shifts from agricultural or craft-based economies toward factory production: rapidly industrializing nations, the industrializing South.
The term often implies accompanying social changes—urbanization, new labor patterns, environmental impacts.
