IndustryNet’s most recent industry analysis of U.S. wire and cable manufacturers found the sector is currently growing, adding 3.3% to its workforce over the past year and increasing sales by 1%.

Today, IndustryNet takes a look at some of the top wire and cable manufacturers in the U.S., analyzing industry leaders based on employment, employment growth, plant square footage, and sales growth.

The wire and cable sector reports a slightly higher jobs growth at 5 percent than manufacturing as a whole at 4 percent. As a corollary, it also reports a slightly lower percentage of companies reporting a decrease in employment at 3 percent than manufacturing as a whole at 4 percent.

Finally, the wire and cable sector reports considerably higher reliance on international distribution than manufacturing in general. Approximately 41 percent of wire and cable companies distribute their product internationally compared to only 29 percent of all manufacturers.

Regionally, the East North Central portion of the United States (Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin) contains the majority of wire and cable manufacturers at 398 companies, or 31 percent of all wire manufacturers nationwide. All of the remaining regions trail far behind this figure.
