Leicester can boast the largest economy in the East Midlands, with its GVA estimated to be £15.3 billion. Its large and diverse economy has been built from the city’s ability to adapt and regenerate as a home for large business, whilst investing and nurturing the small.
Largest economy in the region
Although famous as home to Walker’s and Samworth Brothers food manufactures, in fact Leicester is home to nearly 135 companies in manufacturing and employs over 12,000 in the food processing sector alone. With 10.2% growth in employment in this sector and continuing to grow, Leicester currently has plans for further investment in the industry.
Over 12,000 people employed in food processing
Boasting two major Universities and over 100 schools and colleges, employing over 44,000 people; education is a huge sector within Leicester and one that continues to grow. As Leicester regenerates as a hub for research, business and financial services, education and manufacturing it remains vitally important that management and staff are protected and educated in current HSE first aid industry standards and health and safety requirements.
