The Virginia Employment Commission compiles a list of the major employers in the City of Harrisonburg. The list reflects the diversity of the local economy.
The Virginia Economic Development Partnership maintains a list of the largest employers in the Harrisonburg MSA divided into manufacturing and non-manufacturing categories.
“Harrisonburg provides an ideal context for the highly technical work we perform for the U.S. Government. We are ideally located next to many excellent colleges and universities, which provide exceptional talent, and close enough to DC and Northern Virginia that we can conveniently interface with our customer and partners. To me, it comes down to quality of life. Our employees have very short commutes and there are a plethora of activities in the area that suit almost every interest.”
Mike Goertzen, Sr. Program Manager, Serco“As Rocco considered options for our expansion, we were pleased with the partnership that Harrisonburg Economic Development provided as we worked our way through plan reviews, permit approvals, and inspections. It was helpful to have an ombudsman guiding us through the process. We are excited that we have the opportunity to continue to grow and invest in Harrisonburg.”
