Industry of the Golden Triangle is an organization of the manufacturing sites in Jefferson, Orange, and Hardin Counties of Texas dedicated to seeing that an environment of mutual understanding, communication, and trust exists between industry and its neighbors.

We total about 50 companies that manufacture such useful products as gasoline, plastics, electricity, synthetic rubber, ethylene, propylene, butadiene, benzene, butane, jet fuel, diesel, and toluene.

We are the major driving influence on the Golden Triangle economy. Our companies spend about $1 billion each year on goods and services here and annually pay more than $300 million in taxes.

We employ more than 20,000 people in Jefferson, Orange, and Hardin Counties, and our annual payrolls total more than $1 billion. In fact, fully one-third of all the homes in Southeast Texas have at least one person who works in industry, while another one-third have someone who used to work in industry, such as the thousands of retirees who choose to stay in the Golden Triangle.
