Reinventing Manufacturing California Manufacturing Regional Clusters Analysis Los Angeles Area The Los Angeles Area—defined as Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura Counties—is California’s largest manufacturing hub. With 478,919 manufacturing jobs, the region accounted for 38.5 percent of the state’s manufacturing employment and 8.4 percent of the region’s total employment in 2014. Much of this activity is concentrated in the corridor between Los Angeles and Long Beach. These two cities host two of the US’s top four ports (measured by total foreign trade), together totaling nearly $400 billion in 2014 import and export value. 49 In terms of employment, the Los Angeles Area’s leading manufacturing sector is Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing. With 60,962 jobs in 2014, this sector constituted 12.7 percent of the region’s manufacturing employment base. Other sectors that were not far behind in employment size include Apparel, Textile, & Leather Manufacturing, Computer & Electronic Product Manufacturing, Food Manufacturing, and Transportation Equipment Manufacturing. The distribution of establishments across manufacturing sectors in the Los Angeles Area has remained fairly stable since 1990. Large declines took place between 1990 and 2014 in Furniture & Related Product Manufacturing—down 49.1 percent, Printing & Related Support Activities—down 48.3 percent, and Transportation Equipment Manufacturing (principally aerospace)—down 31.7 percent. On the opposite end of the spectrum during the same period, the number of establishments in Beverage Manufacturing and Food Manufacturing increased by 62.4 and 3.7 percent respectively. In the 2010–2014 time period, the Los Angeles Area manufacturing sector with the fastest growing employment was Beverage Manufacturing (+17.1 percent). Additional sectors that have led job growth since 2010 include Miscellaneous Manufacturing (+15.6 percent), Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing (+13.5 percent), and Furniture & Related Product Manufacturing (+10.0 percent). However, over the long term (1990– 2014) and reflective of nationwide trends, each of those three additional sectors experienced overall job losses in the Los Angeles Area, so the jobs added since 2010 represent a start at recovery and not a net gain. In contrast, Beverage Manufacturing had 1.9 percent more employment in 2014 than in 1990, and Pharmaceutical & Medicine Manufacturing had 89.3 percent more jobs in 2014 than in 1990, having experienced job growth throughout the 1990–2014 period rather than a surge in growth since 2010. 68
