About us
Not only does the City of Richmond, Texas offer a unique blend of Texas history and small-town charm, but it is also home to award winning master-planned communities, and surrounded by retail centers and business districts designed to complement each other. As one of the oldest cities in Texas, it also happens to be the county seat for Fort Bend County, one of fastest growing and most diverse counties in the nation. What makes Richmond so attractive is its location. Strategically located along U.S. Highway 59, SH-99 the Grand Parkway, and U.S. 90 Alternate, Richmond is in a prime position for both commercial and residential expansion. Located less than 40 minutes from Downtown Houston and the world’s leading medical district, the Texas Medical Center, Richmond offers attractive incentive packages, trained & talented workforce to attract businesses and promote progress. A business owner in Richmond reaps the benefits of helping preserve 180 years of history by joining a thriving business community that is leading the City into the future. So, if you’re looking for a small town feel with big city amenities, Richmond is for you. It’s got a little bit of everything… a historic downtown district, well-developed parks and trail system connecting key destination points throughout the city, a high performing school district, award winning master planned communities, and a vibrant local economy.

Thank you to those who attended our Richmond Small Business Breakfast this morning at #LongAcresRanch! We genuinely appreciate the Ranch staff for their accommodating spirit. We thank our caterer, Chef John, at Crazy Coffee Cafe( yes, they have breakfast, lunch, and dinner). Our guest speaker was Janis Burke, CEO of Harris County- Houston Sports Authority. She provided valuable insight into the number of events hosted inside Greater Houston and how the business community here in Richmond can benefit from participating in those events. We thank CEO Burkes for her participation and look forward to continue growing our businesses and exposing them to new opportunities. #EconomicDevelopment #CityOfRichmondTX #SmallBusinessBreakfast #DevelopRichmondTX
