Dominion Packaging said Tuesday it is investing $25.1 million and adding 60 jobs in Henrico County to support a new contract with Anheuser-Busch.

Henrico County-based Dominion Packaging provides packaging solutions for a variety of clients, including Altria, Philip Morris, McDonald’s, Hardee’s and Bojangles’ Famous Chicken ‘n Biscuits. The company, founded in 2004, currently employs more than 280 people in Virginia.

Gov. Terry McAuliffe approved a $150,000 grant from the Commonwealth’s Opportunity Fund to assist Henrico County with the project. The governor also approved a $200,000 performance-based grant from the Virginia Investment Partnership program.

Dominion Packaging is eligible to receive state benefits from the Virginia Enterprise Zone Program. The Virginia Jobs Investment Program will provide funding and services to support the company’s employee training activities.

Virginia competed against Pennsylvania for the project.
