following sectors are strongly represented in both the local economy of
Wrexham and further afield in the travel-to-work area:
Wrexham Employers
Wrexham itself is home to a number of world class companies, including
Sharp, Brother, Hoya, Kellogg's, Tetra Pak, Cadbury and JCB and there
is a high level of foreign investment. There is a significant cluster
of Opto-Electronic companies in the area, which between them employ around
2,450 people and generate a turnover of £276m and just to the north of
Wrexham, there are around 15-20 companies which are involved in the avionics
and aerospace industries. This cluster has resulted from the presence
of British Aerospace, which is the largest private sector investor in
North Wales and employs over 4000 people.
