Top employment sectors <br /> include retail, manufacturing, health care and construction. Together, these top employment <br /> industries represent half of all employment in the City. Though not a top employer, the PSTS <br /> sector represents the highest paying industry in San Leandro. There is a higher concentration of <br /> wholesale trade, transportation, warehousing, construction, and manufacturing in the City than <br /> the State. With the exception of manufacturing, these industries are forecasted to grow in the <br /> range of 0.5-1.5% in the next 5 years. <br /> Specific to San Leandro's industrial areas, a Next Generation Workplace District Study, <br /> completed in 2013, identified three main clusters of high value-added industries: Food <br /> Processing, Metals and Machining, and Instruments and Process Controls. These sectors <br /> represent a logical outgrowth of San Leandro's legacy as a manufacturing hub. Although mass- <br /> produced manufacturing operations have largely been outsourced to foreign countries, <br /> precision and specialty manufacturing and production still provide significant growth <br /> opportunities. A major component of the City economic development initiatives in the near- <br /> term future will involve supporting these types of businesses and working to develop larger <br /> clusters of industrial innovation in San Leandro. This approach is designed to build on San <br /> Leandro's historic strengths while also leveraging new advantages such as the Lit San Leandro <br /> fiber optic network. <br /> alt of Leandro Economic icD°evelo Development and Work December 2013 <br /> Y � p Strategy � <br />
