Plymouth has leapt into the list of the UK's 10 most important manufacturing powerhouses for the first time.
The city has been ranked at number nine for cities, with the highest concentration of people working in manufacturing.
Britain's Ocean City is not only the largest manufacturing base in the South of England but, by cracking the top 10 after previously being ranked at 12 and 13, it is now recognised as a national centre too.
It ranks behind table topper Burnley, Derby, Telford, Sunderland, Hull, Blackburn, Barnsley and Huddersfield, and ahead of tenth-placed Mansfield.
The listing comes from the recently published Centre for Cities Outlook Report for 2022, which uses Office for National Statistics (ONS) data.
