Economic Development
Our Economic Development team is responsible for attracting new business and promoting business expansion in Virginia. Our goal is to stimulate economic growth both at the Port and throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia.
The Port of Virginia is an economic engine that creates 343,000 jobs or 9% of the state’s resident workforce, $13.5 billion of employee compensation, and creates $41.1 billion in total revenue for the state.*
