There's a learning curve effect, which is pretty strong. There is a question of how much of this learning curve occurs in the companies themselves, and how much in the local services they interact with. Once someone has 'educated' their lawyer, accountant, electrician, freight company and BANKER about neckties, it will be much, much easier for the next company. Even the politicians get up to speed. One other clustering factor is the development of specialized suppliers - the people who make the necktie liners, the necktie plastic packages and boxes. Almost every industry has clusters.
