Leszno
Leszno with a population of 63,955 people is located in Central West Poland, Wielkopolska region. Leszno is a major commercial and industrial centre with a diverse range of companies operating in industrial and service sectors and a mix of micro-companies through to large multinational companies. Employment is significantly (50%) based in industrial sectors of the economy namely machinery, furniture, metal, clothing and food production. While representing 50% of employment the industrial sector accounts for 10% of registered businesses.
The challenge facing Leszno within this context is that the economy is based on traditional industries with low levels of productivity. In delivering innovation led growth for Leszno through the modernisation of its existing industrial base and the creation of new companies a new relationship between the municipality and business support organisations in Leszno needs to be established.
