TEMECULA, CA (July 15, 2009) -- In May of this year, Mayor Maryann Edwards launched the City’s Business/Industry Recognition Program. This program is all about recognizing the city’s local businesses that have helped shape our community. The Manufacturing Industry was the second industry to be recognized for their contribution to our local economy by providing jobs and increasing the economic vitality of the community.
According to the most recently available data provided by the California Employment Development Department, the manufacturing industry is Temecula’s third largest employment sector as it relates to the number of jobs. In 2007, there were over 10,000 workers in the manufacturing industry in Temecula.
Also, Temecula’s largest payroll was in manufacturing at over $561 million due to the strength of the city’s high tech sector. Temecula is unique in having manufacturing workers average $55,000/year.
A small, mid-size and large scale manufacturing business were recognized at the July 14th Temecula City Council Meeting which included CNC Manufacturing, Sunstone Components Group and International Rectifier, Temecula.
