Over 260 manufacturers make St. Clair County their
home-base and provide over 11,000 jobs, nearly 20
percent of the county's workforce. They produce such
commodities as automotive trim and parts, brass and
copper tubing, paper products, tapes, and electrical
components.
About a third of the county's employees are involved
in the service industry, many of which are related
to the multimillion-dollar tourism market. Others
are employed in education, utilities, health care
and government.
Retail also has a prominent place in the area's
business environment with attractions such as the
downtown's historic MainStreet Port Huron and
Birchwood Mall in Fort Gratiot. Downtown Port Huron
has welcomed a unique blend of specialty shops,
including trendy coffee shops, eating
establishments, commercial offices and even a
drugstore. Birchwood Mall is a popular destination
that attracts millions of shoppers each year. It
offers over 100 merchants as well as a 450-seat food
court, children's play area and 10-screen theater.
