Ohio manufacturing is responsible for almost 18% of Ohio’s Gross Domestic Product and contributes to the quality of life in Ohio by providing more than half a million jobs for Ohio workers. Manufacturing is the largest of the 20 sectors of Ohio’s economy with 17.8% of total output in 2008. Ohio’s manufacturing sector produced $84.1 billion worth of goods in 2008, ranking it third after California and Texas. The OMA has prepared this data to provide Ohioans with an understanding of the importance of manufacturing to the economic future of the state. Download the complete, 42-page report (PDF, 1.3M). |
