WHAT COMPANIES HERE FACE
The decisions in front of Richmond management teams.
Mid-market firms here pay less for labor and space than in Northern Virginia but compete with Capital One and the state for finance, IT and analytics staff. Distributors benefit from I-95 and I-64 but face rising warehouse rents as data centers and logistics compete for land and power. Many family-owned companies in the region are reaching ownership transitions.
