<p>Hamble-le-Rice is home to three main marinas offering marine services and goods to the boating industry. In addition, large factories and smaller industrial units off Ensign Way and Hamble Lane are used by <a href="CooperVision" title="CooperVision">CooperVision</a>, Qioptiq Photonics Ltd., BP, Hoyer, GE and others. Some of these businesses are 24-hour operations with large numbers of staff who commute to work. The fuel terminal itself is not visible from the B3397: there was extensive development in the early 2000s when wartime hangars were demolished and high-density housing built next to the road, near the terminal. The <a href="Royal_Yachting_Association" title="Royal Yachting Association">Royal Yachting Association</a> (RYA), a non-profit organisation, has its offices in Hamble.
