Chicago's manufacturing industry

With access to major transportation networks like waterways, highways and railroads, Chicago’s strategic location has made it a significant distribution and logistics centre for manufacturers.

Celebrated for its reputation of industrial innovation and production, Chicago has a diverse manufacturing sector, including textile mills, chemical manufacturing and plastics and rubber products. 

In September 2024, the Illinois Manufacturing Excellence Centre (IMEC) and World Business Chicago (WBC) announced that they have entered a new partnership that will propel economic growth and enhance Chicago’s manufacturing sector.

This partnership will mean that the manufacturing sector across Chicago will embrace new technologies and harness innovation and inclusivity.
