Abstract:

BUSINESS NORTH CAROLINA ranks the state's 100 largest for-profit employers. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., with 41,700 workers, heads the list, followed by Delhaize America Inc., with 30,115. Richter discusses the decline of traditional industries in the rankings (textiles, tobacco, and furniture) and the lack of defense industries in the state, despite a large military presence.
