The location quotient is always calculated by using the number of employment. I am thinking whether it is feasible to use the number of factory establishment, instead of employment. Is there any literature I can refer to?
Dear Mr Foo
I agree with you > the industry share in term of production should account to location
specially after the advancement in technology which is depending on technology more than human working force

I am agree with you
I suggest to you create both scenaries
1) number of employment
2)number of factory establishment
Then you can applye multi-criteria decision making methods in order to have strong evaluation on it and for it I think I can help on MCDM evalution
