米国ウエストバージニア州　経済開発省 Company Profile

To companies looking for favorable locations for manufacturing in the United States.

The West Virginia Government's Japan Representative Office is an extension of the International Division of the West Virginia Department of Economic Development. West Virginia is located in the eastern United States, surrounded by five states including major cities like Washington D.C. and Pittsburgh, and is known for its strong manufacturing sector. The main features of West Virginia are as follows: - Low industrial electricity and gas rates (due to coal, natural gas, and shale gas-fired power generation, as well as having one of the largest wind farms in the eastern U.S. and being home to the Appalachian Hydrogen Hub in Morgantown). - One of the largest wind farms in the eastern U.S., advantageous for the use of green energy. - Excellent access to the large market in the eastern U.S. and a logistics hub. - High retention rates (ranked first in the nation for low manufacturing turnover rates according to the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics). - Resilience to natural disasters (the terrain, which is predominantly covered by the gently sloping Appalachian Mountains, has solid bedrock, making it less susceptible to earthquakes, hurricanes, and tornadoes). Particularly active industries include chemicals, automotive parts, aerospace and defense, steel, metal processing, building materials, and IT, with recent growth in the EV and battery industries.

Business Activities

We provide services centered around information support regarding entering West Virginia, including market research, local property introductions, introductions to necessary professionals for expansion, incentives, tax deductions, job training, and recruitment, as well as post-entry support. We offer the latest local information for free, so please feel free to consult with us first.
