state-of-the-art manufacturers
"indústria" is normally used in Brazil when referring to a manufacturer, that is, a company.
Industry (in the USA) will be understood to mean a sector of the economy, a business type - such as the service industry.
In the text submitted, the author clearly means companies, and not industries.
