Inorganic Ventures, a leading manufacturer of custom inorganic chemical blends, will invest about $3 million to move its operations from New Jersey to Falling Branch Corporate Park in Christiansburg. The project will create 46 jobs for Montgomery County. Virginia successfully competed with New Jersey and Pennsylvania for the project.

The Virginia Economic Development Partnership worked with the Town of Christiansburg, Montgomery County, and the New River Valley Economic Development Alliance to secure the project for Virginia. Governor Tim Kaine approved $100,000 from the Governor’s Opportunity Fund to assist Montgomery County with the project.

“We are very pleased a respected company such as Inorganic Ventures Inc. has selected our Falling Branch Park to re-locate and establish its new corporate headquarters, laboratories and manufacturing facility,” said Annette Perkins, Chairwoman of Montgomery County Board of Supervisors. “This facility will diversify and enhance our local bio-tech manufacturing cluster, a strategic objective of our economic development program.”
