Strategic Mid-Atlantic Location
Virginia’s location offers major advantages for the wood products and related industries. Virginia is located within the Southeastern “wood basket” region, which supplies over 60% of the total volume of timber harvested in the U.S. The Commonwealth’s central position on the East Coast is ideal for import and export of wood products through The Port of Virginia and provides ready access to suppliers and to major hubs of economic activity along the Northeast corridor, across the Southeast, and throughout the Midwest.
