International Investment on the
Rise for the Third Consecutive Year
VEDP has realigned the business attraction team to increase our ability to market
Virginia’s story on the global stage, and the results continue to show a strong
return on this investment. For the third year in a row, international companies have
increased their announcement of investment, job creation and new projects in
Virginia.
In 2013, international companies announced 54 new projects expected to yield

Both job creation and investment
metrics saw some new countries
make it to the top tier this year.
Mexico, Ireland and Australia were
the top three countries creating
jobs in Virginia, while the
Netherlands, Switzerland and
Luxembourg were the top three
countries investing in the
Commonwealth.
Ireland-based Greencore Group
was the largest international job
creation announcement of 2013,
with 350 positions. This producer
of convenience food and prepared
meals plans to establish its first
Virginia facility in Stafford County.
The announcement was a positive
outcome of the governor-led
European Marketing Mission in the
summer of 2012. Greencore chose
Virginia due to its talented labor
pool, proximity to Mid-Atlantic
customers and access to high-quality
produce through the Commonwealth’s
rich agricultural supply.
“International project
wins in 2013 featured
significant new business
opportunities from China,
India and Mexico, as well
as Europe. Several key
organizational and staff
changes have enhanced
the business attraction
team’s international
outreach capabilities, and
I fully expect VEDP will
continue to contribute to
strong growth in foreign
direct investment in the
years to come.”

International Food and Beverage
Companies Love Virginia
Virginia’s food and beverage industry was one of the top sectors for the
Commonwealth in 2013. It was No. 2 for both job creation and investment,
leading to announcements for 1,259 new jobs and $515 million in capital
investment. Also of interest — the top three international investment
projects were all in the food industry.
One of the marquee projects announced early in the year was Unilever’s
$96.2 million investment to upgrade its Lipton Tea plant in Suffolk, Va.
The plant has operated out of Suffolk since 1955 and is the largest teaprocessing facility in the U.S., producing nearly all the Lipton Tea bags sold
throughout North America.
“Unilever is enormously
proud of the heritage of
Lipton, its employees
in Suffolk and the wide
range of quality teas we
produce at this historic
factory in Virginia.”
The strength of the Hampton Roads labor force and close proximity
to the international Port of Virginia were key deciding factors in the
Commonwealth’s favor. Unilever brings in loose tea from all over the world
for processing at its Suffolk plant through the Port of Virginia, which offers
access to 250 ports in more than 100 overseas locations.
Food and beverage companies love Virginia because the Commonwealth
provides a strategic East Coast location, premier transportation network,
highly-productive advanced manufacturing workforce, favorably priced utility
rates and a corporate tax rate of six percent that remains unchanged since
1972.

Ardagh Group and Canline
Systems — International Supply
Chain Economic Development
When Luxembourg-based Ardagh Group announced plans to invest $93.5
million to establish a metal packaging manufacturing plant, it selected
Roanoke County over six states. Not only is this project expected to create
96 new jobs, it is the largest single manufacturing investment in Roanoke
County’s history.
Ardagh Group’s investment illustrates the powerful effect of supply chain
economic development. The company is a leading supplier of glass and metal
packaging, focused on the food and beverage industry. The company recently
won a long-term supply agreement with ConAgra, which required it to add
manufacturing capacity on the East Coast.
Just eight days later, a major supplier to Ardagh Group announced it would
establish its first U.S. facility, also in Roanoke County. Netherlands-based
Canline Systems supplies conveyor systems with can-making and canprocessing applications for the food industry that can move up to 2,400 cans
per minute. The project is expected to bring another 25 jobs to the region.
Both projects are big wins for the region – not only will they bring more than
100 jobs, but adding two international companies in the food packaging sector
augments the region’s strong foundation in this growing industry cluster.

Food Products – Driving
the Manufacturing
Resurgence in Virginia
Manufacturing has always been a main driver of Virginia’s economic
engine. From heavy equipment to lightweight precision components, the
Commonwealth does it all. What makes 2013 unique is the dominance of
food manufacturing.
“We are so proud
to continue to call
Chesterfield County
home. Sabra’s newest
expansion underscores
the fact that Virginia
(and the rest of the
country) is for hummus
lovers. But our growth
within Chesterfield
specifically speaks to
the relationships we
have developed within
the community and the
wonderful environment
the state has fostered for
growing businesses.”
Four out of the top five manufacturing projects by investment creation
are food manufacturing companies, and three of these are international
companies.
In 2013, Sabra Dipping Co. celebrated the grand opening of its Center
of Excellence on its 49-acre campus in Chesterfield County. The
20,000-square-foot center includes a state-of-the-art culinary center,
research laboratory and pilot plant. The company also announced another
expansion to extend its manufacturing capacity through an $86 million
investment that is expected to create 140 new jobs. Sabra has become the
top-selling brand of hummus in the U.S.
Sabra chose Virginia again for its skilled workforce as well as the ability to
partner with the Commonwealth’s leading higher education institutions.
Resources such as Virginia Tech’s Department of Food Science and
Technology will help Sabra establish best practices in the areas of food
technology, agriculture, nutrition, manufacturing and packaging.

Data Center Investment
Reaches $1.4 Billion
Data center announcements continued their reign during 2013. With
announcements of $1.4 billion, this is the second year in a row that data center
investment topped one billion. Investment in data centers increased 37 percent
over last year and accounted for more than two-thirds of all non-manufacturing
capital investment.
Companies feel confident establishing their data centers in Virginia because the
Commonwealth offers a safe environment, with low risk of natural disasters; the
highest concentration of high-tech workers, according to Cyberstates 2013;
competitive electricity rates below the national average; the advanced broadband
infrastructure that supports up to 70 percent of the world’s Internet traffic each day;
and the Retail Sales and Use Tax Exemption that provides a competitive cost
advantage on qualified equipment.
Industry leaders, like Microsoft, have continued to increase their data center
investment in Virginia. In 2013, Microsoft announced plans to invest $348 million to
expand its latest generation data center campus in Mecklenburg County, adding 30
new jobs. This follows an initial announcement of $499 million in 2010 and an
expansion announcement of $150 million in 2011, bringing Microsoft’s total data
center investment at this Virginia location to almost $1 billion. With its modular
technology and advanced cooling mechanics, the Mecklenburg County location is
one of Microsoft’s most advanced data centers.

Growing Companies
Find Success in Virginia
In 2013, existing Virginia companies made 237 project announcements that
included investment of $3.1 billion and creation of 11,858 new jobs. This
represents 86 percent of total invested capital and 74 percent of new job
creation for 2013. The dominance of existing business expansion is perhaps
the best endorsement a company can give to illustrate the success businesses
experience in the Commonwealth’s innovative, pro-business environment.
“Existing businesses
have ‘stock’ in Virginia,
and through our strong
business expansion and
growth strategy, VEDP
is helping companies
maximize that stock
purchase. Working with
our local, regional and
state partners, we’re
proud that Virginia’s
existing businesses
continue to reinvest in
new jobs, and with more
capital, driving our
economy forward.”
Even more impressive, the top five projects overall for both new job creation
and invested capital in 2013 were all made by expanding Virginia companies.
Amazon Web Services, a business unit within Amazon.com, was the top
project for job creation in 2013, with 500 new positions. In August, the
company hosted a grand opening reception at its new office in Fairfax County,
marking a quick follow-up to its May announcement.
The new office location within the Dulles Technology Corridor provides
a strong fit for Amazon Web Services, offering access to an advanced IT
workforce and close proximity to government customers.
In addition, Amazon.com already has a strong presence in the
Commonwealth. In 2011, the company announced it would establish two
fulfillment centers in Central Virginia’s Chesterfield and Dinwiddie Counties for
a total investment of $135 million, creating more than 1,350 new jobs.

Professional Services is the Top
Sector Again for Job Creation
Professional, Scientific and Technical Services, classified under NAICS code 541, once
again led the way as the top sector for job creation in 2013, with 5,886 new positions.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, businesses in this sector rely on human
capital as the major output. Companies in this sector tend to be service businesses,
such as accounting, engineering, legal, computer design, technical consulting and
scientific research firms. They are selling expertise and are highly dependent upon the
knowledge and skills of their employees.
It comes as no surprise that this is the leading sector for job creation in the
Commonwealth. Virginia’s human capital pipeline is one of its strongest assets, and
companies continue to praise the skill and dedication of their Virginia workforces.
Virginia’s expertise in the STEM industries is well-known. The U.S. Chamber of
Commerce touted Virginia as the No. 1 state in STEM job concentration in its
Enterprising States 2013 study, and The TechAmerica Foundation once again
esteemed Virginia as having the highest concentration of high-tech workers in the
nation in its Cyberstates 2013 report.
“This year’s
announcement results,
with particularly
strong weightings
in the professional
services, technology and
manufacturing sectors,
confirm Virginia’s
ability to deliver highly
productive and skilled
workers. Over the long
run, this capability will
help separate Virginia from
its competitors.”
Cvent is one such company that has utilized Virginia’s high-tech workforce from the
beginning. Since its founding in the Commonwealth, the company has grown from a
two-person start-up to a global, publicly-traded corporation that offers a leading cloudbased event management platform. In October, the company announced plans to
expand and move its headquarters to the former SAIC headquarters building in Tysons
Corner. The project is expected to create 400 new jobs over the next three years and
retain more than 451 jobs in Virginia.

VEDP Launches Going
Global Defense Initiative
VEDP launched its Going Global Defense Initiative to mitigate the impact
of defense spending cuts on Virginia’s economy, the nation’s leading state
recipient of federal spending. The focus of VEDP’s international trade team is
to assist Virginia businesses in capturing export opportunities overseas. As the
U.S. federal government cuts back on defense spending, there are significant
opportunities for Virginia’s defense companies to grow sales abroad.
“International trade
is the key to long-term
business success.”
Paul Grossman
VEDP Vice President
of International Trade
VEDP received funding to assist Virginia’s defense-related companies that
have been adversely affected by defense budget reductions. This grant will
leverage the funds with VEDP’s international trade programs to promote the
diversification of Virginia defense companies into new international markets,
thereby ensuring long-term economic survival and continued ability to supply
U.S. defense forces.
The Going Global initiative generated international sales for Virginia’s defense
companies by providing the following:
• Market research
• International certification
• Export compliance
• Digital marketing
• Security market reports
• Export training
• International defense events
International Trade Snapshot 2013
r In 2013, VEDP international trade graduated 27 companies and welcomed 25 new companies into
the VALET program, which includes 50 companies at any one time.
r I nternational trade participated in the State Trade and Export Promotion (STEP) Grant pilot
program and helped 66 Virginia companies by arranging in-country market visits, translating
marketing materials and developing international business plans. The STEP grant is made
possible by the Small Business Administration as part of the Small Business Jobs Act of
2010, Section 1207.
r I nternational trade led 13 trade missions to Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, Chile, Argentina,
Canada, Germany, Australia, the United Kingdom, India, South Korea, Brazil, Colombia, Costa
Rica, Australia, Poland and the Paris Air Show in France. A total of 96 companies participated.
r In addition, 42 Virginia companies used international trade to coordinate independent trade
missions, which arranges face-to-face meetings with potential customers for Virginia exporters.
Virginia companies traveled to China, Turkey, Germany, Chile, Brazil, Colombia, Singapore,
Costa Rica, Indonesia, Canada, Mexico, India, Argentina, Japan, Israel, UAE and South Korea.
r International trade completed 126 internal research projects helping Virginia companies choose
markets to enter, identify local partners, and manage shipping, legal and payment issues.
r International trade completed 245 market research projects for Virginia companies through its
Global Network, a group of more than 55 in-country consultants contracted by VEDP.
r More than 215 business leaders attended the 65th Virginia Conference on World Trade in
Williamsburg, the theme of which was, “Sixty-Five Years of Global Business Success.”

Building on the success of VEDP’s call center operations, the Partnership
launched a new lead generation program in 2013 that supports our business
attraction marketing efforts with appointment setting services. The program
replaces VEDP’s traditional marketing mission program with a more responsive
and flexible model. The primary objective of the call center lead generation
campaign is to set telephone meetings between senior corporate prospects and
VEDP business attraction managers. The managers qualify the prospects and
determine if additional action is required prior to committing financial resources
on travel. Through in-house and purchased data, VEDP’s research team produces
a target call list of approximately 4,000-6,000 companies each quarter in our
geographic and vertical sector markets. The call center placed more than 60,000
calls in 2013, resulting in more than 250 appointments for our business attraction
managers, and a steady pipeline of new opportunities for Virginia.
Continuing the momentum from its recent advertising success, VEDP launched
two geo-targeted digital media campaigns in 2013 that focused on VEDP’s key
markets domestically and in the U.K., Germany and China. The campaigns will
deliver more than 100 million impressions between January 2013 and June 2014.
VEDP continues to see a direct correlation in website activity and geographic
markets supported with advertising. The most impressive example of the
correlation is a more than 1,200 percent increase in year-over-year website traffic
originating from China between 2012 and 2013. Forbes, The Wall Street Journal,
The New York Times, Financial Times, CNN Money/Fortune International,
Reuters, Guardian, and ad networks through AdTheorent and Rocketfuel were
some of the selected media outlets.
In October 2013, VEDP launched a redesigned website at www.YesVirginia.org
to reflect a more modern presence, streamline navigation and provide easier
linkage to our social media outlets. We continued with our pay-per-click ads on
Google and Bing to drive traffic to the website. In 2013, VEDP Web traffic was up
again, with a 28 percent increase in total visits
of 1.2 million and a 55 percent increase in
unique visitors of 323,414.
VEDP continues to collaborate with its
economic development and higher education
partners on events and trade shows. The Port
of Virginia site consultant tour, Paris Air Show,
BIO International, CoreNet Global Summit
and SelectUSA Investment Summit were
all examples of showcasing a united Virginia
presence, enhancing the Commonwealth’s
story in the global marketplace.
“VEDP’s call center
continues to play a
vital role in VEDP’s
aggressive outreach
marketing program.
The call center placed
more than 60,000 calls in
2013, resulting in more
than 250 appointments
for our business
attraction managers,
and a steady pipeline of
new opportunities for
Virginia.”
Vince Barnett
VEDP Vice President
of Communications &
Promotions

Notes on Methodology
This report reflects calendar year 2013 and is based on announcements
of planned employment creation and capital expenditures in Virginia
by basic companies (manufacturers and non-manufacturers with a
substantial customer base outside the state). Many of the new facilities
announced are not yet in operation. The information indicates the kind
of new economic activity occurring in the state; it does not measure
total employment growth. Information is gathered from the Virginia
Economic Development Partnership’s allies at state, regional and local
levels, as well as from published sources and Partnership staff. Rules
for documentation of announcements were established to ensure
consistency of reported data. All information is obtained on a voluntary
basis, and no claim is made that the data is complete.
