Uncovering the Bangor
Region’s Competitive
Economic Sectors
Bangor Region Development Alliance
In cooperation with
Action Committee of 50 and
Eastern Maine Development Corp.
February 5, 2015
What Drives the Regional Economy?
Exports.
BRDA’s role: Recruit Exporters
But Exports Come in Two Flavors
Exports:
Sales that bring $$
into the Region
Goods &
services sold
outside of
Region
Non-residents
spending $$ in
the Region
$$
Also a Service Component of Economy
Service:
Sales that re-
circulate or keep $$
in the Region
These businesses
prevent $$ from leaking
out of Region
Major Finding #1:
Bangor’s Greatest Strengths
EXPORT
BUSINESSES
Bring New $$
into the Region
Producing for
Sale or Use
OUTSIDE of
Region
Selling to Non-
Residents
WITHIN the
Region
SERVICE
BUSINESSES
Re-circulate $$
within the Region
Selling to Non-
Residents
WITHIN the
Region
SERVICE
BUSINESSES
Re-circulate $$
within the Region
How do we know? Specialization Ratios
A Specialization Ratio well >1 implies
• competitive advantage and
• significant net exporting (or little leakage)
Calculated for ~500
business sectors.
A bit like an X-Ray
of the Economy.
Our Broad Export Sectors with High SRs
and Growing Are All in 2nd Category:
• Higher Education
• Health Services
• Comparison Goods Retail Stores
For Example:
SR v Maine/US Growing?
4-Yr Colleges & Universities 3.0/3.2
General & Surgical Hospitals 1.2/1.6
Psychiatric & Subst. Abuse Hospitals 5.0/7.1
Medical & Diagnostic Labs 2.9/3.2
General Merchandise Stores 1.4/1.3
“Other” Motor Vehicle Stores 1.3/2.6
And Moving Up Fast
• Some Arts, Entertainment Sectors
• Travel Accommodations and Food Service
For Example:
Spec Ratio ME/US Growing?
Gambling Industries 4.7/3.5
Promoters – Perf. Arts and Sports 1.1/1.7
Hotels 0.9/1.2
Full Service Restaurants 1.0/1.0
Limited Service Restaurants 1.2/1.0
What About Exports Out of Region?
EXPORT
BUSINESSES
Bring New $$
into the Region
Producing for
Sale or Use
OUTSIDE of
Region
Selling to Non-
Residents
WITHIN the
Region
SERVICE
BUSINESSES
Re-circulate $$
within the Region
Producing for
Sale OUTSIDE
of Region
Major Finding #2
The Bangor Metro Area does not specialize in
broad industrial sectors that produce goods
and services for sale out of the region.
E.g, not a Manufacturing Center or a
Professional & Technical Services Center

that produce goods and services for export:

Key Questions:
Can We Trace These Export Sectors
Back to Regional Competitive
Advantages?
And can we build on these
advantages to fill in supply
chains, enhance clusters?
In cooperation with EMDC,
Action Committee of 50 and others
Competitive Advantages Suggested
by These Sectors
Proximity to Northern Forest*
Proximity to Gulf of Maine*
Transportation Infrastructure
Outdoor Recreational Brand*
Higher Ed Center/Flagship University*
Center for Comprehensive Health Care*
Heritage of Skilled Artisan Workforce
* High level of confidence
