A large-scale economic story, structured for clarity

The Henrico EDA site needed a structure that matched the complexity of its offerings without overwhelming any single visitor type. The Locate Here, Launch Here, and Grow Here framework organizes the site’s extensive content around a business’s stage and intent, while dedicated industry pages, a robust data section, and an integrated property search give every audience the depth they need to make a confident decision.

Seven Industry Sector Pages

Henrico’s economy spans seven target industries, with its own page built to speak directly to each sector’s priorities.

Advanced Manufacturing pages highlight port access, rail connections, and proximity to Richmond International Airport. Health & Life Sciences profiles VCU research proximity and Thermo Fisher Scientific’s Henrico presence. IT & Tech leads with QTS Richmond NAP and high-speed fiber infrastructure. Finance & Insurance speaks to the fintech and corporate banking talent pipeline. Each page pairs employer logos with data that gives prospects immediate, credible proof.

Major Employer Roster & Newsroom

Nothing builds confidence like seeing who else has chosen this location. Henrico’s employer roster — spanning Fortune 100 companies like Altria, Markel, and Genworth alongside global brands including Amazon, Meta, Bank of America, ABB, and Thermo Fisher Scientific — is displayed on a scrolling wall that gives prospects immediate social proof.

The Henrico NOW newsroom and press release section keeps the site active with fresh announcements of expansions and arrivals — like the recent Fulton Bank ribbon cutting — signaling to prospects that Henrico is actively growing.
