The Henrico County Existing Business Assistance Program is a valuable resource dedicated to helping Henrico County's existing businesses. 

A Message from the County Manager Virgil R. Hazelett, P.E.

Henrico County is committed to meeting the needs of existing business. The Economic Development Authority offers a variety of services that provides you with valuable information and assistance.

The objective of the program is to present existing Henrico existing businesses with the best services available. In some cases this means working directly with the Economic Development Authority staff. In other situations the Economic Development Authority will serve as a coordinator and facilitator when the needed existing business services are available through other well established assistance centers in greater Richmond.
