This is our first-ever Top 100 Manufacturing Leaders list, and it’ s one we’ ve wanted to put together for a long time. Manufacturing rarely gets the spotlight that other industries do, even though it is at the heart of almost everything in modern life. The past few years have asked more of manufacturing leaders than perhaps any point in recent memory. They have rebuilt supply chains from scratch, absorbed new technologies at lightning pace and steered their businesses through a global trade environment that is constantly changing. Through tariffs, talent shortages and neverending disruption, they have kept factories running and people employed – often with little public recognition. It is an honour to recognise those leading the world’ s largest manufacturing companies through all of it. If you are featured, you have earned your place among the greats.
