As we enjoyed the holiday weekend, we paused to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

Hampton Roads Shipping Association and Virginia Maritime Association are closed on Monday, May 25, in observance of Memorial Day.

Today, we recognize National Maritime Day and the people who keep America moving.

Every day, ports, shipyards, terminals, tug crews, truck drivers, warehouse teams, mariners, and logistics professionals work behind the scenes to power commerce, strengthen supply chains, and support national defense.

The maritime industry is more than ships and cargo. It’s jobs, opportunity, economic growth, and the connections that keep communities and businesses running across the country.

Virginia’s maritime community plays a critical role in that story, and today we thank the workforce that keeps it all moving.
