Roderick Bruce · Answer 2

East Coast

Explanation:

If a company is planning to build oil drilling and processing plants in North America, and its market is mostly Europe, then it will be the wisest to build the plants in along the East Coast of North America, or if possible in the Northeastern part of the US, and southeastern part of Canada. The reason for building the plants there is that they will come out on the Atlantic Ocean. The Atlantic Ocean is the water body that connects North America and Europe, and the products will go through it between the two continents. the northeastern part of the US, and the southeastern part of Canada would be the best locations along the East Coast because the distance from there is the shortest to Europe, so the company will save lot of money on transportation, which will make its product slightly cheaper, thus more competitive on the market.
